I've passed the NCLEX, have the Visascreen, NY license was issued in January (after completing the CVS) and now have an offer of a wonderful job in NY. Start date is April 15th and I plan to leave Canada on April 11th. Am meeting with an immigration...

I was issued my TN status yesterday. It seems like there was nothing easy about this process. If you are not educated in the US some states require further credential verification by CGFNS. In NY, where I will be working, they required CVS before the...

It took me 8 months and I received it this January. I was educated in Canada. After the status showed ready for final review I started phoning and that seemed to help...if you can get hold of someone.

this is from the arizona board of nursing website: applicants educated in a foreign country (including canada and *puerto rico) for a professional or practical nurse to obtain licensure by examination you must meet the requirements listed from a ...

You will need to get a Visascreen done by CGFNS before a TN can be issued and I think Arizona requires it before issuing a license or authority to test. I would give the board of nursing a call. I have Minnesota and NY licences and am applying for my...

Yes, I start work in NY city on April 15th. I'm looking for any advice in preparing for the border interview questions, issuing of the TN status, tips regarding the employment letter. Thanks.

I work with a british nurse who has been in BC less than one year. Try Fraser Health Authority in British Columbia and see if you can speak with a nurse recruiter in HR.

I'm moving to NY in 3 weeks and feel I truly have been offered my "dream" job. I didn't start applying until after my NY license was issued and I had the visa screen. Be prepared to explain what the TN visa is and it's helpful to provide written info...

bumping this up in the hope that I might get a reply. Thanks !!

I was in the process of endorsing my license to NC, where my partner lives,had a job interview arranged for the 22nd...when said partner advises he has been offered a great position in Manhatten! I am happy for him as his field has experienced set ba...

Thank you for the information, sounds like NJ might be a better option. Can I still submit an application without the US SSN?

Passed last month in 75 questions in about one hour...guess that makes me one of the 45% of "foreigners" !

I graduated in 1989 from my nursing program in Canada and have worked almost exclusively in psychiatry since then. I passed the NCLEX on Oct.17/08. I took 3 months off to study and was almost paralyzed by anxiety the day of the exam. I did Kaplan and...

I did the Kaplan complete course and really found it helpful - also did the 4 day in class sessions and liked it. I did sign up for NCSBN but honestly didn't use it very much. I did use Saunders as outlined in Suzanne's plan. I passed (in 75 question...

Big Congrats to Shinyblack car and Serena :yeah: That's fabulous news!!! Hugmebaby and Richo I'm sending lots of positive thoughts your way:loveya:

Congrats to you babygirl 1470:yeah: Now relax and enjoy yourself !!

Thank you so much! Mikhy and I "met" here on the board and were exchanging questions and answers before the test. It is so amazing to me to be able to share thoughts and feelings with nurses all over the world. My thoughts and prayers are with all of...

I took the Kaplan program last month. Did the online QBank and question trainers. Also did 4 days in class and would highly recommend it. The instructor was terrific - made things easy to understand, reinforced the online material. The method for ans...

I took mine on the 17th and found out today that I passed, also in 75 questions. I really did not have a great feeling when I left. Trust that you know your "stuff" !! I tried to just keep busy all weekend to try and get the constant nclex thoughts o...

I didn't think my results would be in yet as I took my test Friday morning but thought I would give the Pearson site a try. I'm still shaking and crying....I PASSED. After over 2 years of travelling back and forth from British Columbia to North Carol...

Took the NCLEX this morning. Stopped at 75 questions, I felt like I was just getting into it! I think there were 3 or 4 SATA and one of the most complex medication questions I have ever seen. I go home to Canada on Sunday and the wait for the results...

You could try www.healthmatchbc.org - it's a provincial organization that recruits for healthcare professionals. On that site are links to all of the different health authorities throughout British Columbia. You would probably need to have been appro...

I'm Canadian and will be writing my NCLEX next week. I want to work in NC. I received my ATT through Minnesota. I've just started applying for work and found out today that Minnesota is not a compact state. I was advised by the NC nursing board to go...

I'm from Vancouver and will be writing the NCLEX on October 17rh in Charlotte, NC. I took the Kaplan program here in Charlotte and have been using Saunders and Mosby's as well. My advice is write it as soon as you can - it's been tough studying the m...
