once you have graduated you need to apply to a state board of nursing meet requirements, pass NCLEX and then look for a employer willing to sponsor you for a immigrant visa and wait the 2 plus years it will take.

Also most states require English exam if your first language is not English so probably need to work on the language

Hi, first, you should contact the CGFNS an filling up the requiered documents. you need also English proficiency exam (TOEFL, ETS or ILTS).

Where do you want to migrate to?

The EU? Latin America? Australasia?

i prefer to Europe

Eutope is going to be difficult. Plus it is a very large area so you really need to whittle down to the country you really would prefer to live and work. Most countries will require you to have some experience and if you can gain specialty experience that will help

And wgat about canada?

Depends on the route you take however things are tight for nurses already here in Canada so someone with no experience is going to find it hard finding a employer willing to go the route of work permit
