Wow this is really helpful! Thanks a lot.. I just have a question though, I've read
somewhere that you can't claim your license if you don't have an ssn. Wala din
po akong ssn. MPaano po tayo makakawork? For my situation now, I don't have
plans to work in the US but I'm planning to take the nclex so I can add more
credentials on my CV and just in case I get a job there in the future hehe. Hope
you could help!

Hi! Thank you! I'm glad you find this post helpful.
About your question... It really depends on which state you are
planning to apply the NCLEX and get licensed at. There are some
states that allow applicants to take the NCLEX-RN even without a
valid SSN provided that they acquire one to sustain the license. Others
on the other hand allow you to take it and get licensed without any
catch thereafter, in short, you take the exam, you pass, you get the
license, that's it. As for future plans to work in the US, yes, we need to
acquire a valid SSN and the only way to do that is to work there
and/or be granted of a visa of any kind and get a job offer. I, too, am
taking the NCLEX for additional points for my CV and basically to be a
USRN, regardless if I will be working there in the near future or not.
Good luck on your NCLEX application / exam and future plans!

Hello Nin! I love your blog. I, too also is applying for licensure in NY the difference
is that I didn't take the NLE here in the PH that's why I don't have a license yet. I
would like to ask how did you start studying for the NCLEX? What books are
you reading as of now? Can you give me some tips on how you studied for this
exam? And when you pass the nclex and also have the USRN title what will you

Hi! Thank you! How's your application? Your CGFNS CVS will be faster because
they only have to contact your school for authentication. It took mine some time
in PRC for obvious reasons.
I started seriously studying just this June. I haven't taken the exam, I haven't
even scheduled it, so I'm taking my sweet time to study so I can assess myself
when I can take it. But honestly, it isn't as serious as one should expect. I enrolled
myself in a review center because I don't have that much materials and
structure. But thing is, it is like self-studying but you are in a confined and
comfortable environment with lesser distractions. Though anyone can just study
on their own, it depends if you really can study at home, which in my case, I can't
because of the distractions (TV, bed, etc). The books I use right now are the books
provided by the center, a book where the basics and summary of each of the
systems are divided into chapters, a book that contains the topics frequently
tested in the NCLEX-RN which is pretty much like the first book, Kaplan 20112012 Q&A. I am also planning to buy the Saunder's Comprehensive Review Guide
Q&A for when I ran out of questions in my QBank.
As for the tips, answer as many questions as you can. I answer no more than
250 a day. Read on the topics again to review or refresh your mind. Do not think
that what you learned at school or in the practice is correct. Always, always,
questions the answer / what to do and rationalize in accordance to the Ivory
Tower of Nursing that the NCLEX - RN is after. And do not rush, study at your
own pace. Do not force yourself to study when you don't feel like it. Study
happily. :)
When I pass the NCLEX, I don't think I'll be able to leave the country right away
to practice in the US. When I pass the NCLEX... I haven't thought much about it
yet. I need to study and pass the exam first. :)

Hi! Thank you! I wish there was something like this when I was
starting, I would have saved a lot of time, effort, and money! :) I have
not completed the mandated courses. I've been told it's okay since I
won't be practicing there. I started August 2012. The CVS took 4-5
months, August to late December or early January this year. I received
my eligibility from NYSED this March, after a month since my report
was issued by CGFNS. I opted for the mail and had it addressed to my
sister's US address. Please see latest post for updates. Thanks!

After you register for the CVS of CGFNS, you will be asked to print
some pages, those are the forms you have to mail. I believe that
includes the form for authentication of school and PRC, your proof of
payment, and then your application form.

Hi! Thank you for the tips! I am currently using Saunders 5th Ed Q&A
as well.
I advise you to process your papers this early because CVS takes time.
By the time you are to take the exam you might have forgotten the
things you've reviewed that you have to re-do it again, unless of
course, you review constantly. I am on my 3rd month of review and
I've already forgotten some things I've studied on my 1st months. But
continue studying! Let me know if you have questions! Good luck!

Hi, thank you for all the information. I find your page really helpful. I'm currently
trying to apply for NCLEX in the state of NY as well, however I haven't started
doing anything yet. I'm still in the process of gathering information. But I wanted
to ask regarding the VisaScreen. I came across these when browsing through
the FAQS regarding CVS. Do we still have to undergo VisaScreen as well? And
when would be the best time? I've read they only expire after 12 months.
Thanks!

Hi! Visa Screen is not a requirement in order to get licensed at any

state. It is, however, a requirement in order for a foreign nurse /
graduate to get a visa to be employed in the US. I think it would be
best to get it after you passed the NCLEX and get your license.

Hi! New York is one of the few states that allow foreign nurses /
nursing graduated to get licensed regardless if you will be working
there anytime soon or at all. For the time being at least. The only way
to work there is to get sponsorship from an agency which has
employment contacts / hospitals in the US. That, too, is my dilemma
since there aren't that many employers and if there are, they are
after those who already have Priority Dates and a handful of hospital
experience.

from your name and that you will have to mail with your application

requires a SSN, w/c i don't have unfortunately. So how did you

Hi! That shouldn't be generally the case because they have reciprocity

Hello, I'm really happy that i found your blog. I'm a Jamaican RN now living in
Japan, and i'm currently in the process of applying for the NCLEX. Your blog has
really helped me, and its making the application process a bit simpler.

You can check yes then take it right away or by the time you are
going to take the exam. It doesn't matter. The courses are very easy.

hello Nin! i just want to ask regarding CGFNS processing, did you call CGFNS
often for the update of your application for CVS? or did you just rely on their
website for updates? I already sent my application to them last October 2013.
Some of my frnds said I should call CGFNS customer service often for faster
processing of the papers. Would appreciate your reply.Thanks. :)

Hi! your blog saved my life hehehe I'm at my wits ends. I'm so stressed out and
honestly don't know where to start. Here's my scenario: I'm an american but
foreign graduate (philippines) last march 28 and I'm still here... planning to stay
a little longer and just take my nclex in makati. Do I still have to do that CGFNS
Verification thingy right?

Hi there. Im quite confused with some stuff regarding the nclex exam application
in NY. Just wanna ask, once i get my eligibility, do i have to schedule myself to
take the exam right away? Does it have some sort of validity period or expiry
date? Please help....

Hi! Once you get your eligibility, you can register at Pearson Vue and
yes, you are the one to schedule your exam. Your NCLEX examination
registration will remain open for one year. Once you get your ATT, it'll
be valid for 3 months only. :)

I think the license will be issued to you. My license was issued even
though they do not have my SSN in their records.

Hi Nina
I find your blog very useful. But since I am planning to take the NCLEX next year,
does NY state still require SSN? If yes, do you know how to obtain it? I have no
relatives in the US who can help me out or enlighten me and I am completely on
my own. Thanks in advance for your response. Thank you.
