HI! Is this the H-1B Visa? I know of a helpful website, hold on and I'll post it for you (see below)!

Try the above website, it is a fairly clear explanation of the new H-1B laws and how they relate to Nurses. It seems H-1B is only eligible for Nurses who come to work in states that require RN's to have a Bachelor's degree. The only state with this requirement is North Dekota. I would think this means you can come to N. Dekota with you H-1B, and then work there while you apply for your green card.

I hope this helps a little!

(here is just a little more basic info on the same site, you may already know all of this information, but it may be helpful)

Specializes in Medical and general practice now LTC.

Moved to the International forum

H1b is a specialist visa and as a new grad you generally do not meet requirements. Things may have changed by the time you complete your training but expect to be affected by retrogression or problems getting a H1b visa

I do hope you are doing the nurse course for the right reason and not a way of staying in the US.

Wow! That's quite a change of heart--going from a graduate course in industrial management to nursing.

Interesting how you are posting in a nursing forum, but aren't asking anything about nursing. Your main concern seems to be how you can qualify for a visa. Do you have any interest at all in nursing?

Please try not to step on any patients in your race to the visa office... :chair:
