CNO told me eligibility to take the CRNE is valid up to 4 years. If after 4 years you still don't take your CRNE, then they will ask you to submit yet another set of documents to prove the recency of your nursing practice.

Hey! I'm a HE. :D Anyways, It takes 3months for the CNO to assess your eligibility if you can take the CRNE but for someone coming from the Philippines they will normally ask you to do the BET which will naturally add up more time before the CNO can decide on your case. REmember that BSN in...

Ideally, you have to wait for some time, get yourself established first. US visa officer would ask you when you landed and if you have a job in Canada already or if you have a house or renting your own apartment now. If your answer to these questions is no, the likelihood that you will be given...

Opened an account with Scotiabank and RBC, both are very good banks. With RBC we got an unlimited charge-free debit transactions plus we were able to open a US-based account. This is very useful if you travel a lot to the US or have plans of moving to the US someday.

Good to know. Much thanks, Leon. :D

I wonder if this deal will have a positive effect on Canadian Permanent Residents wanting to travel to US without a US Visa. Will it allow anybody legally residing in both countries to easily cross the border without a visa requirement?

Just a query. Anybody can answer and would appreciate anyone's inputs. We landed November last year but had to come back to our country to finish our employment contract. Question is, do we have to file for income tax in Canada now for our earnings overseas or are we still exempted from this...

Same observation I have. But come to think of it, presentation of disease descriptions are all not complete because they conduct their exam so different from NCLEX. Don't think about being thorough like in NCLEX because NCLEX style questions won't appear in CRNE. Spoken to several Canadian RN's...

Farpadana, I won't be able to send you a copy of my BET as I really did not save a copy. And even if I have it and want to share it here to help, I won't be able to do it as I am not allowed by the CNO. See once the CNO approves your BET, they are going to send you a statement of...

I submitted just the photocopies. Remember that they did not ask for it. I just submitted them thinking it might help them in assessing my paper.

Yes, I have the eligibility already after filling out the BET and writing an appeal letter and submitting all the certificates from my continuing education. The appeal letter and the certificates were not required it's just an initiative on my part to help them assessed my paper favourably...

BET is really just an essay. There is no format to follow. You"ll basically just be asked to site an example, in essay form, as to how you will demonstrate your competency in a particular area/s of nursing. As in my case I received essay questions that goes "something like": Site an example...

Congratulations, Aspire!

I think so. Just realized this is a very good question. Can this pathway be a solution for RN's who didn't make it to the cap for this year?!...

You most likely won't be able to inquire about the status of your FSW application. You just have to wait for the reply of the "CIC" whether your application reached them in time to be included in the 1000 cap or not for this year. If not, they are going to send you back your documents. How soon...

This is for RN. You only write this if the CNO finds your credential to be not completely the same as theirs after they have assessed your paper. They ask some applicants to write this in order to establish if they have the needed skills and knowledge at par with the Canadian graduate nurses...

You can't under the RN category. Bachelors degree is needed in Canada for one to be able to apply and register under the RN category.

It's only an essay. Remember while you're writing it to hit as many competencies as you can. You can get a copy of the list of competencies expected of a graduate nurse in Ontario on the CNO website, it's downloadable.

Assessment will take a while. And with your year of experience, it is very likely that you will have to take the bridging program.

That's right. No need to do a bridging program here. If you have a master's degree then I guess you won't have any problem registering in the entry level category. As I have been told, a BSN in the PH is equivalent only to their LPN's in Canada and a Masters to their BSN. It would still be a lot...
