So that means, it already starts as soon as you have some documents (usually except CG/NCLEX) and the payment. Then the exams just complete it. Thanks

In this thread (http://www.nursenightingale.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=12), someone said that VisaScreen starts only when complete. Is that true? Thanks, cringeguy

For the sake of discussion, if I passed NCLEX in NM, can I already apply for endorsement to NY? Or do I have to get a visa/green card to NM first before I can apply for endorsement to NY? Thanks, cringeguy

Thanks suzanne4, the last sentence is the clincher! ; ) cringeguy

Hello everyone, I'm starting from zero: I just passed the local nursing examination in the Philippines and dreaming of working in NY. No CGFNS/NCLEX/English tests. I've read much of the posts here (especially the long posts), and please comment on my plan since it involves money and lost time if I will commit the same mistakes: (1) Apply for New Mexico BON: » I heard that it, and also Vermont BON are the fastest (since they don't require CES). They only require either CGFNS certificate if you have it OR official transcript from my school (http://www.state.nm.us/clients/nursing/forms/ExamApp020905.pdf) (2) Apply for Visa Screen: » According to suzanne4, this is the most prudent thing to do since the application here is so slow, so better apply early. (3) Apply and take NLCEX once ATT is available (4) Take English Exams (5) Apply for Endorsement to NY BON Then immigration. Did I miss anything? Or is this road a mistake? Thanks, cringeguy
