US RN considering to move and work as RN in Ontario, Canada.

World Registration

Published

I am a canadian (by immigrating) but I have been working as a RN in USA for over a year now. I have lived in canada 4 years ago and moved to US last 2015 since I have always had my US license. I graduated nursing in Philippines and passed NCLEX before I moved to Canada. I love canada and I am considering going back in a year or two.

I am wondering if it's easier to get the RN license in Canada considering I am holding a US license with experience as compared to an internationally educated nurse without North American experience who is planning to move to Canada?

A friend told me she read that an US NCLEX passer does not have to take the CRNE (and I am assuming Canada has been using NCLEX for their nursing students now?) Pls correct me if I am wrong.

Thanks for upcoming answer. Pls do enlighten me.

Isn't this the poster who was given RPN papers in Ontario and moved south to work as an RN?
