Nope. Sorry for the confusion. I have never worked in the US or anywhere outside the Philippines. Is it okay not to include it? May I know if you already have your DL or at which stage of registration are you in? Thank you.

Hello, I am currently processing my registration with NMC too. Other than my primary RN license in the Philippines, I am also a US Registered Nurse in the State of Texas. Had anyone here sent his NMC form to the Texas BON for License Verification?...
Hi, I took the initiative to start another thread about PGH since the first thread closed. My dear colleagues please keep posting your inquiries, updates and what not about PGH in this thread. Thanks!
The timeline could be different for you but in my case, I completed all the requirements in April and received a confirmation that my documents were sent to the document controller for safekeeping. I had to wait until the last week of June before I...
PVT still works! did the trick one hour after leaving the testing center. got 75 questions with close to 30 SATA questions for my NCLEX RN exam and 3 days after, got my quickresults and says PASSED.
Thank you hukneeb (this is mikeemikes26, I just recovered my old account) and yes, the trick still works! I saw my name listed as RN on my BON's website 3 days after I took the exam! PVT still works!!!!
Hello there. Academic IELTS might be required before you can take NCLEX but that depends on whether your nursing subjects' and text books language is English or not. Try searching for Avant Healthcare Professionals in face book. There's a link the...

Hello Ava, I'm curious how "sick" is your friend? Did she catch simple colds or flu during the last visit? First, if you're really concerned about sending a sick person to the community, then I think it's best that you tell your friend to just stay ...
Hi! It's okay. You can always take Nursing or any program you are interested in if you still have the desire to do so in the future. When I was in college, most of the 2nd courser students I met were 40 years old and above, there even was a 50+ yea...
Hello kisheen, I don't have an exact date for the exam. Right now, I am processing my CES verification of license and professional education with CGFNS and have also received the review materials through a shipment from the US. I am waiting for the ...
I am not sure if Avant will pay for NCLEX and other requirements however, I know for a fact that it is Avant who'll chose the state where you'll take the NCLEX. It won't hurt asking them about the exam fee. Just send them an email and someone will ...
Hello Fish4jibs. You probably didn't read the contract thoroughly. Sorry we're not supposed to divulge specific information about that here but the $25.00 hourly rate stated in the agreement doesn't mean that that's what you'll get once placed. The...
Hello nurse.khaleesi! I am a Filipino RN like you, I work in the ER. You are right, it all seems too good to be true but I want to encourage you that Avant is 100% legit. I together with my five colleagues started with the process in February 2016 ...

Hello new nurses, welcome to the real world! hehe, guys, accept it, it's really hard to find a related job but come to think of this, it's worse a couple of years ago because of the surplus of registered nurses unlike this time when nursing enrollmen...

Hello mon2x_RN, I was batch 2008 graduate like you. It took me 5 long agonizing years before I was able to practice nursing again after making some big sacrifices. At first, my priority was to look for a training program for nurses who had been ina...
