Thanks Silverdragon 102 for your initial advice. I checked the CGFNS website which requires me to create my account to lodge my applications/credentials. How long will it take the credential validation processes? Thanks again.

Hi all, I'm AL, a Philippine migrant and an Aussie RN from Sydney, Australia. I work in Urology Surgical Unit as Clinical Nurse Specialist for 9 years now. I also work as Clinical Nurse Facilitator of one of the prestigious universities here for 3 years now. I have completed my 4 year Bachelor of Science in Nursing in the Philippines in 2008 and became Philippine Registered nurse. I came in Australia in 2012 and completed my bridging course program to be qualified as an Australian Registered Nurse. I finished my Masters degree in Health Management at the University of New England in 2018. I am very interested in working as a nurse in US due to family reasons. I am eyeing to work in New York (priority), but can also includes New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Maryland or Virginia (as an options). I don't know what are the processes or steps on how to apply as an USRN-NY. I would very much appreciate if anyone could advice me the specific details/procedures in applying. If anyone of you here have the same plan then we could help and work each other to achieve our dreams. I would love to hear your experiences or expert advice. Cheers everyone! AL TA
