U.S. Immigration to Florida or Kentucky as a registered nurse

Published

Hi,

My fiancee is a registered nurse in Israel and we want to immigrate to the U.S. preferably to Florida or Kentucky.

We do not have SSN's.

We want to acquire permanent residency in the U.S.

We know we need to pass the NCLEX exam first.

After the NCLEX exam, Florida's BON or Kentucky's BON will require SSN

in order to issue a certificate (RN number), how can we move pass that?

Is the NCLEX certificate enough?

Thanks.

no that's not enough but its the steps that are needed to be done you would also need a visascreen certificate and most importantly a hospital that is willing too sponsor her unless you are a american citizen then would have to go thru that route to get a green card to work and live in the US

Specializes in ICU.

You can go the Agency route and they will direct you every step of the way.The Agency can also sponsor you for a Green Card.Another thing you can do is find a BON that does not require a SSN and will issue your license without it.

Arizona BoN does not require SSN to apply for NClEX.
