I'm not sure, it's best to e-mail or call them for a more direct answer.

Since you're applying for licensure in New York, you would undergo the CVS process as it is NY specific from CGFNS. The CVS will only verify your nursing education and if it applies, your local license from India. New York will do the evaluation of your school transcripts and if they decided that it is up to US standards then they will make you qualify to sit for the NCLEX.

Now, since you are processing your CVS, I think you don't need to be involved with the process since that would invalidate your application as the CGFNS collects documents through direct communication with your school or local licensing body. All you have to do is sign the authorizations that came with the packet that they have given you when you applied for CVS and pray that the CGFNS receives your documents the soonest possible time.
