Vermont licensure to NY?

Published

hello, i need some insights regarding this situation.

Two friends of mine are about to take the licensure for Vermont. They told me that VT process fast than NY because CVS is the reason for the delay whereas in VT you only need the CG cert. im not quite sure. However, my friends wanted to work in New York because more opportunities are present there. will they still need the CVS for endorsement? does VT need the SSN first before issuing the license just like CA? will it take them long to do that since VT usually process fast? they wanted to pass the NCLEX ASAP and i cant seem to convince them to take the NY route. i havent submitted my application yet so im trying to weigh things in and i don't want to put my plans in jeopardy.

also, suzanne and everybody, i needed some feedback on this. i just found out on visapro.com that Vermont Center is now two months behind already for the schedule A nurses' processing time. Texas is processing the May 2005 applications and California with the April 2005 applications. Vermont is still stuck in March 2005 when before i often check their schedule and usually they update their schedules at least every two to three months. Does that mean that they are now getting slow in processing and back logs now are overflowing since almost every foreign applicant is now applying there? do you still advise that we still have our applications processed in Vermont? How about TX and CA? i know your views wouldn't change but we would still appreciate any info.

your feedbacks will be highly appreciated. please enlighten me and my friends. thanks again. Have a nice day everybody! :)

You still have to go thru the Visa Screen process so things are not any faster.

they do have their visascreens already as well as cgfns certificates and english exams. they only lack the nclex which they prefer to take the Vermont board. Is that possible? (refer to my previous post)

thanks :)

Then it is a moot point. Most people that ask for advice here are just beginning the process and have nothing done.

As far as Vermont for licensre, this has absolutely nothing to do with Visa Processing Center. One is for licensure to work as an RN the other is for your green card. If you get hired to work in NY, then you will be going thru Vermont Processing Center. There are only five centers in the US, and it goes by where your employer is located, not anyhting else influences it.

The reason for the change in the dates is that there were many nurses from the PIC countries wishing to work in CA.............they were taken out of the numbers and are just being added back in. Vermont normally functions the fastest.

There are no working visas available for nurses, only green card/immigrant visas. Noone is getting one at the moment with the retrogression. You will have to leave the country and do the process from home.

You are from the Philippines, you are under a retrogression, you will need to return home before your visa expires. You will not be able to stay and start working at this time.
