So I have to do an English proficiency exam? Even though all my education has been conducted in England and in the English language? If is shows that I am required to do this element can I sit the exam in England?

I have recently registered with the CGFNS and am in the process of gathering the documents required. However, as I have applied to New Jersey, i was not able to proceed until i included a CGFNS Language Report in my payment costing $85. I am a little confused as what the Language report is exactly for. Could anyone help?

When providing documents for the CGFNS, are they only interested in pre registration academic work? Do they take into account post registration diplomas and certificates?

Thanks for that. You know so much about this area, I'm so glad you responded to my post. When you said that there is a retrogression with visas is that for the EB3 or H1B visa. Or both?

If the wait is this long, does ones GCFNS and lisence from a state board expire in this time?

Yes, I am aware if the retrogression. I have thought long and hard about the commitment and figured that it's best to be in the process than not at all. Do you know how many visas certain countries are given each year?

Hi - just joined here today and have a thread already. I am just about to commence the process to become a RN in the USA. However, the state in which I will eventually be applying states on the foreign nurse applicant section, that foreign nurses require TOFEL or equivelent to recieve a lisence in that state. Does anyone know if English nurses educated in English are to comply with this or are we exempt? Input would be appriciated:)
