Who knows review centers from cagayan?

Stay away from any of those centers. The only place that processes the ATT is Pearson-Vue after you have gone thru the licensing process for a state and have received permission to test from the actual state.

These centers cannot help you with anything and will only charge you a fee for doing something that you can easily do on your own. There are many threads here on how to do things, just have a read on the International Forum. If you are having issues with that, then you may wish to work on passing of the English exams first. Instructions are written very clearly and if you are having issues with them, then please work on English skills first to have a better chance of passing the exams including the NCLEX exam.

And by the way, there is no application to get the ATT, only one for licensure as an RN to a particular BON. Also be aware that you are looking at years before you will even have a chance to get to the US with a visa that will permit you to work. There are many more applicants than there are visas available per year. Right now the wait is about five years to even have a chance.

thanks for the information... but its really hard to look for a certified review centers here in the Philippines,especially Mindanao! i'm not familiar with Pearson Vue! but i'll try...

Pearson-Vue is the company that does the NCLEX exams and that is who you will register with and pay the fee for the exam to. You schedule your testing date with them as well.

You will be much further ahead and not selling your soul to the devil to have an agency do the paperwork for you as you will then belong to them and they will sell you to the highest bidder like a slave.

Training and review centers should not be involved in recruiting, and it is actually a conflict of interest for them to be doing so in your country, which means that if they are teaching, as well as recruiting, they are doing it illegally and you do not want to be involved in that at all.

There is much to be found on the International Forum here as what you will need to do for licensure in the US. But please be aware that there are not any visas available now and we do not expect them for sometime, and if any agency promises to get you there quickly, they will be doing it illegally and then you are subject to being deported for minimum of ten years.

Would advise you to get your local license and then get a couple of years of experience in another country to have the best chance of getting to the US, and notice that I used the word chance, there is nothing that is guaranteed with immigration anymore. No matter what any employer tells you.
