thank you elkpark..! you were right! Texas BON just replied.. "please select the section for Non-Compact state and write in Philippines. Once you arrive in Texas you can update it"

i am currently a volunteer nurse in the Philippines. I have already processed my CES with CGFNS but they failed to notify me upon issuing my CES to The Texas BON. i haven't passed my application form to texas bon yet cause i'm having difficulty with Section D: Nurse Compact Declaration where in i should declare my primary state of residency... In accordance with the Nursing Practice Act, section 304.001, art. 4 and 22 TAC 220.2, check one of the following: �� I declare Texas as my primary state of residence and I have provided a Texas address. I am eligible for a Compact Texas License (if applicable, once you receive the Texas license, your other compact state license(s) will beinactivated). �� I declare Texas as my primary state of residence but I have not provided a Texas address. I am eligible for aSingle State Texas License only. �� I am declaring a Non-Compact State as my primary state of residency. My permanent residence is a state notparticipating in the Nurse Licensure Compact. I am eligible for a Single State Texas License only. (You may visithttps://www.ncsbn.org/Implementation_dates_list.pdf for a listing of participating states) I declare that the State of________________________________ is my primary state of residence and that such constitutes my permanent andprincipal home for legal purposes. �� I am declaring another Compact State as my primary state of residence. Therefore, I understand that I cannotreceive a Texas license at this time (temporary or permanent), but I wanted to get the process started. I will submit a Sworn Declaration of Primary State of Residence form when my primary residence changes to Texas or a non-compact state. I declare that the State of ________________________________ is my primary state ofresidence and that such constitutes my permanent and principal home for legal purposes. can anyone help me please? :)

hi? i was wondering how you got your fingerprint card? did you get it from the local US embassy? i too am in the Philippines and i'm not sure how to do the criminal background check thingy? oh and did you wait for your CES to be sent out before you sent out your application form? thank you so much for your response.. :)
