Suzanne and Lawrence, Thank you very much. I appreciate it. I guess I have no options but to DO IT SLOWLY BUT SURELY. You guys are so amazing. Please don't stop helping others ... in the end, I know its rewarding. God Bless !

thanks for the reply. i know it already that u cannot work without a permit. in a nutshell, what i was asking is what do you think is my best move? kindly read between the lines. anyway. thanks! i appreciate that.

I'm confused. Will anyone help me out please. Here's my story. Im a medical officer (MD) at a government institution in the Phil until now. Took up nursing, graduated, licensed, passed CGFNS certification and TOIEC at Philippines last 2004. Im here right now at USA as tourist waiting for CES approval (needed by Florida State Board) hoping that ATT would be released before October 26, 2007 (return ticket to home). My problems are: 1) my current employer allowed me to have only 45 days of vacation leave which will end on the above date, otherwise it will force me to resign. (btw, im married with 2 kids); 2) i believe, CES will be released after that date (maybe longer); and 3) no employer would hire RN without NCLEX. I dunno what's the next best step to take? Can I get a job legally before my six month stay as tourist expires? :uhoh3: Thank you and more power.
