RN license for foreign nurses

Hi! I'm a registered nurse from the Phils. I took and passed both the CGFNS and IELTS exams. I recently sent my application to CTS for IL licensure exam. I have read from their website that IL only accepts TOEFL exam. and I am wondering if I should take the TOEFL first before they send me an eligibility letter to take the NCLEX, or they will allow me to sit for NCLEX but if ever i passed it i should passed the TOEFL before they can issue my license? pls send me insights regarding this matter. tnx a lot! :) [/sizeew ]
