  1. It would be interesting if they do come, but I think the PRC and PNA will get an earful. They may try to ask for a variance of those recently coming in, but I seriously don't think it will happen. CA...
  2. Eligibility for CA BON unfair...

    As elkpark mentioned, it's not a "right", but a privilege. Think of it as trying to get a driver's license, same thing, not a right to drive, but a privilege. To obtain a driver's license, one must...
  3. Eligibility for CA BON unfair...

    I do like this person's look on the situation, she pretty much said it all. https://allnurses.com/international-nursing/who-blame-ca-682278.html If the above link doesn't work, here's what she said...
  4. Eligibility for CA BON unfair...

    TO Lex: sorry to hear about your situation, but I have mentioned this to a few people here in this forum, since you and your one batchmate went to the same school, same courses, just about same...
  5. Who is to blame for the CA BON mess and a solution?

    The OP in this case was very much right on the points as mentioned in her opening
  6. 6 months LVN program?????

    I think the CNA program is 6 months, but we're talking about the LVN program (also at the Allied school), which is 18 months long. I had a friend who was enrolled until she had complications with her...
  7. CA Board of Nursing

    A good part of your battle is taken care of just having a SS#, whew....but did you ask the Michigan BON if they have issues with the concurrency courses or minimum clinical hours? If they are not...
  8. Yes, from what I understand in talking to a few overseas nurses trying to get licensed in CA, once you reapply at any point, you are "resetting the clock" all over again, meaning everything will be...
  9. Ca-NCLEX will expire

    Have you tried NY or NH? I don't think they have the SS# requirements "yet". But at some point, everyone will be required to have a SS# for future license renewals, if the SS# requirement becomes a...
  10. Ca-NCLEX will expire

    NM now requires a SS# to be issued a license, VT just change to the SS# requirement just a few days ago, not sure of TX, but I have heard thru others that many states will require a SS# by this...
  11. Help please

    That's great news, both on passing the NCLEX and able to take the exam without the SS#. Did you apply for the eligibility prior to the April, 2010 deadline? If you didn't and still got your ATT, so...
  12. So you're saying that your friend has had her college transcripts "approved" and just needs to look at her actual diploma to complete the package and get the final approval? If that's the case, then I...
  13. CA Board of Nursing

    The only strict thing outside of the regular foreign pre-screening of your transcripts from an outside agency and the language testing (not sure of that, but check the BON site) is like what CA needs,...
  14. CA Board of Nursing

    Don't foget to even start the process with CA BON, you must have a SSN or all of the above, will get rejected and save yourself the application
  15. To the OP: you might as well have her transcripts looked over by the CA BON, since that's your ultimate destination. Even if ABC state granted her RN license the moment she steps off the plane,...
  16. CA nclex-rn results for foreign grads with ssn

    VT just recently changed their SSN requirements upon the application submission, effective, this month, May, 2012. They are following CA's and it's been said that many other states may soon follow in...
  17. CA Board of Nursing

    You see here's another case of knowing someone from the exact same school and courses taken and was able to get their ATT. This is your best source that's exclusive to you alone, the person you know...
  18. No Jobs for 43% of Newly Licensed Nurses in California

    Here's the actual link with all the background information and numbers that I posted back in Nov. 2011: https://allnurses.com/california-nurses/2011-ca-rn-646995.html#post5936765 Click on the CA BON's...
  19. Moving to California, Need Advice

    I would make sure that you can safely endorse your IL license over to CA. You will find a lot of international grads that obtained their degrees if your's is an overseas BSN? I'm gathering that's...
  20. CA Board of Nursing

    Hi, there: No, I don't have any personal references, but there are at least two recent posters here that do: belagee12 and dayz13. They both have the perfect referrals or case to present to the CA BON...
  21. CA Board of Nursing

    Same thing, give your CA BON contact person, your friend's name and her license number (go to the CA BON site and type in the information) tell them your friend got her ATT and you're all from the...
  22. CA Board of Nursing

    There's no better person to give to the CA BON as a reference point other than your friend that just passed the NCLEX, like what belagee12 is doing. Get your friend's name and her license number, it's...
