I apologize if this thread was already discussed. I am in serious confusion about SSN requirement to sit in NCLEX exam in any US state nursing board. Why and When SSN is needed for any international applicant during the application for RN? If I don't have SSN, does that mean I will not get a RN license even if I passed the NCLEX? I will appreciate any posting that are relevent to this thread, and certainly will be helpful for my understanding. Thank you for your time!
