  1. June 2008 Visa Bulletin

    Nuieve replied to spacegurl's topic in Immigration Advice

    Well, they said "complete recovery of the cut-off dates would occur for October". I wonder if this means end of retrogression in

  2. June 2008 Visa Bulletin

    Nuieve replied to spacegurl's topic in Immigration Advice

    Was retrogression bigger last October? I mean how many years behind were cutoff dates, does anyone

  3. June 2008 Visa Bulletin

    Nuieve replied to spacegurl's topic in Immigration Advice

    I think I read recently in one of the threads here (tracker thread?) a report that they were already processing December

    Huh? No movement at

  5. I passed... (long detailed story)

    Nuieve posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    5 months of 10-12 hours/day of studying, thousands of test questions, countless hours of worrying.... It's all behind now. These past months were like a blur to me, I don't remember them, I had no...

  6. Taking Blood Pressure - I feel stupid

    Nuieve replied to Nuieve's topic in General Students

    I would like to know about it too. Is this possible (to such an extent)? One of the patients actually asked me about it yesterday, and I was not sure what to reply... She said she always gets a...

  7. Taking Blood Pressure - I feel stupid

    Nuieve posted a topic in General Students

    Ok, to get it out of the way, I've taken probably few hundreds blood pressures, so it's not like I don't know which way of the stethoscope to stick into my ears. Today I volunteered for diabetes day,...

  8. Taking Blood Pressure - I feel stupid

    Nuieve replied to Nuieve's topic in General Students

    Thanks for remembering me. :) I passed NCLEX last July with 75q. Right now I'm just staying in MA program brushing up on my rusty clinical skills and waiting for retrogression to lift.

    Nuieve replied to Nuieve's topic in General Students

    Interesting idea, I'll try it out the next

  10. April VB is back!

    Nuieve replied to fruity's topic in International Nursing

    They processed 6 months despite a zillion of AOS applications (I wonder if those were processed too)... I say they did a great job yet again.

  11. My first (truely) psychotic patient

    Nuieve replied to november17's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I was reading your story like a real sc-fi book!

  12. Have there ever been precedent when F1 visa renewal was denied?

    Nuieve posted a topic in International Nursing

    If so, how many and under what circumstances (because of violations, type of degree pursued, or no reason at all)? If yes, how many... I'm thinking of applying for RN to MSN program and wonder what my...

  13. Have there ever been precedent when F1 visa renewal was denied?

    Nuieve replied to Nuieve's topic in International Nursing

    Let's say the form is ok, I have enough funds for 2 years and my GPA in previous studies here in the U.S. is about 3.9? Have you ever heard of anyone getting rejected for no apparent reason despite...

  14. Licensure in Washington State vs. other states

    Nuieve replied to samyaira's topic in International Nursing

    I think WA requires CGFNS prior to letting you sit

  15. Can an international RN be accepted into BSN program in the U.S.?

    Nuieve posted a topic in International Nursing

    So I'm a RN (with American license that is), but w/o experience. I want to go the Bachelors route, but I wonder if universities actually accept students with their associates earned in other...

  16. Can an international RN be accepted into BSN program in the U.S.?

    Nuieve replied to Nuieve's topic in International Nursing

    That makes sense, I was hoping for a miracle... cause I'd really like the chance to avoid dealing with my nursing school's, the paperwork can be slow, with complications and errors. Oh well... Thanks...

  17. Can an international RN be accepted into BSN program in the U.S.?

    Nuieve replied to Nuieve's topic in International Nursing

    That's good news, thanks! :) One more question though... If after graduation (as a bachelor) I decide to go to another country that requires credentials evaluation (Australia or NZ for example) and...

  18. Work Visa for Foreign Nurses: Is there such a thing?

    Nuieve replied to Antigone's topic in Immigration Advice

    Oh, I didn't know that, about few hours windows and such. Interesting... and kind of disturbing. As for hospices work, I just came from an impression given by reading this forum for many years. Also,...

  19. Work Visa for Foreign Nurses: Is there such a thing?

    Nuieve replied to Antigone's topic in Immigration Advice

    Do these unions only defend hospitals jobs, or hospices too? Cause as I get it American nurses don't want to work in hospices, so what would be the harm if H1B visas (at least) only allowed foreign...

  20. Work Visa for Foreign Nurses: Is there such a thing?

    Nuieve replied to Antigone's topic in Immigration Advice

    I wonder why don't they allow nurses to get working visas now. I understand that while there were easy-to-get green cards before retrogression crisis and cancellation of Schedule A, that was a...

  21. A bit OT: how much does initial clinic visit usually cost?

    Nuieve posted a topic in General Nursing

    I went to the local community health clinic for immunizations last October as a new patient. Today I received the bill. They charge me 137$ for the visit alone (my insurance doesn't cover preventive...

  22. A bit OT: how much does initial clinic visit usually cost?

    Nuieve replied to Nuieve's topic in General Nursing

    Oh, ok, that sounds nice (for me that is). :) They charge me 51$ for Hep B... 25$ for combo (Td probably)... I guess HepA will be cost to 80$... Anyway, thanks for easing my worries, now that I know...

  23. February Visa Bulletin

    Nuieve replied to letina's topic in International Nursing

    Oh, ok, I thought availability of visas automatically implies possibility of both AOS and regular visa

  24. February Visa Bulletin

    Nuieve replied to letina's topic in International Nursing

    Ok, so let me get it straight. If all of this comes true, those who are already in the US but haven't started anything (even no I-140) won't be allowed to file for

  25. Which Australian state has the least expensive bridging course for RN?

    Nuieve posted a topic in International Nursing

    Ok, after making a few calls, I have to change my original message to this: I contacted South Australia nurses board and the result is this: - in order to get registration I need 6 months of working...
