Help!! I'm a nurse from the Philippines. I paid for the CVS last year around August and CGFNS sent the signed forms (by me) to my school and the PRC in November 2014. My school sent my transcripts in January but CGFNS updated to status "RECEIVED" 2 m...

My 180 days expires in April. PRC keeps on saying they haven't received anything from CGFNS yet but CGFNS says they mailed everything in November. Who's telling the truth?

I'm here in Saudi and am soon going back to the Philippines because contract will be finished. Like some others here, the institution I am now in has terrible management. They are requiring us to work for 7 days (meaning-- without a dayoff) without e...

What is the link to the source of the long memo? Because the one on the Ca BRN site is only a 1-page article stating something about not accepting applications without SSN. Where can I officially find the long one where it states "one DOES NOT HAV...

try AFT Manpower at Mabini St. somewhere in Malate. Lots of agencies there. Some are requiring experience, some aren't. i don't know if they're "good" as i'd just passed an app myself. good luck!

Applied in January. Never been called.

Your mobility capabilities as nurses are impressive! I'm still unemployed. I'm currently on Plan X and nearing Plan Z by the minute because Plans A-W didn't work. I've passed the exams (which are expiring next year!), signed a contract (US), got 3 m...

hello lenjoy03. Sent you a PM.

Hello. Since I cannot endorse to another state under the California Board of Registered Nursing without a US social security number, and cannot use the License by Endorsement form nor the License Verification form, do I just send a letter telling CA ...

Old news that the media has touched on just now. Finally. *yawn* It should be in the news everyday, so more people would avoid being like me-- a non-quitter all for nursing but jobless in the end nonetheless.

Norwegians have a fairly good grasp of the English language, just like the Swedes, because it is part of their school curriculum. I've been told this by a Norwegian friend. However, if they use pure Norwegian in the hospital for charting and everythi...

I couldn't agree more with you clarklopez23.

It says on my CGFNS account status VisaScreen Mailed April 22. What courier do they use in mailing the certificate? Some people say they use UPS which only takes 3 days. Should I start worrying? The 3 days are up. I was not given a tracking number, n...

thanks suzanne. i'm fully aware that there is a retrogression and it will take 1,000,000 years to get to the US to work. i'm just thinking that if it gets lost in the mail, i would have wasted $448.

Sure, sure. But try applying now without a backer. Even volunteer positions are governed by backers.

This is my exact, same problem. Most of the other countries require 2-3 years experience. UAE requires 2-3 years. 2-3 years also for Australia and New Zealand. Same with Canada and Singapore. Oh.my.god. Stuck in a rut.

they really cannot be compared since the nclex is computer-adaptive. but personally, i'd say the nclex is harder. i was in shock after the computer screen turned blue.

how many questions you had on your exams? 75 what did you use as a review material? kaplan trainer, delmar online, saunders comprehensive cd and book, saunders q&a cd and book, lippincott comprehensive cd and book, mosby cd enrolled in a review c...

I recently did this: I passed the "Request for Validation of License/Registration for VisaScreen" to the CA Board of Reg.Nursing together with a $60 bank draft fee and a letter asking them to please forward my NCLEX result to ICHP/CGFNS. I told them ...

P.S. "BSN" is a degree, and "RN" is a title so I put RN instead of BSN. Was I wrong in doing this and do I need to write to CGFNS to change it?

I have a question about the online application. What do I put on the "Professional Title Obtained"? This is located under the Schools Attended (college specifically). I put Registered Nurse but I was told by somebody that I should have put "BS Nursin...

Oops it's 60 for Visa Screen, just saw it on the CA website. Now the question that still remains is, how much for forwarding of nclex results from CA to another BON? 60 or 10?

Thank you to both of you. I've already applied online last month (I guess it's too late to cancel) but haven't paid yet and haven't sent the requirements yet. I am planning to send the required items very soon. But also, I will be needing cgfns to do...

Is it possible if I'll apply online and pay for both services at the same time so the sending of documents will just be once instead of twice? There are similar requirements in the visascreen application and the CES such as license verification (from...

Someone who did it himself sometime ago, but certainly not recently so I don't know if what he's talking about still applies now. I know there is a fee of $60, and $10 for the copy of test result, I just don't know what specific form do I submit to t...
