   In addition to my above comment, once you get passed the border, ask the agent where the closest "SSN" building is. You will go there to apply for an SSN. They didn't really bother me with questions and it was a very smooth process. Make sure you pro...

   @Romina Bakhtiari I agree with @westcoastlife. I would not suggest booking a flight. If you can, drive to the border. Some officers will be dicks but you should be able to get a stamp at the border. Depending on your deficiencies, you may be asked by...

   Yes so I have passed the NCLEX! That would mean I should be eligible for a TN Visa.

   So I just have to apply to receive a license from another state? Not necessarily work there? Would you have any resources that explain how to do this?

    I am having this exact issue and I was wondering if OP was able to come up with a less convoluted solution? Hopefully they (or others) can share what steps were taken to receive Work Authorization, SSN, and Cali License. I just received my CGFNS Visa...
