    Touchstone Institute is pretty corrupt. They would never admit it if they have issues with their server being overloaded and people not being able to submit their registration. It's pretty ridiculous. They will tell you also that there is no wait list. THERE IS! Call and have your name put...

    National Nursing Assessment Centre NNAS

    CNO will likely require you to take courses in the dimensions that are "somewhat comparable". But first they will likely give you the chance to provide work history documents to try to show you have successfully been doing the work and therefore that is proof of your skills in those areas...

    I doubt CNO will respond. They never do. We don't have LPN in Ontario. It's RPN. I wish you well, I hope you are able to decide. It's tough, and it's very tough to become a licensed Internationally Educated Nurse in Canada.

    You can try to get a license as RPN/LPN, but you might end up working as a Personal Service Worker (PSW) in the interim.

    I'm not sure. I only know about RN stuff. And if you did NCLEX-RN in the US you don't have to do it again in Canada.

    National Nursing Assessment Centre NNAS

    There are people who have waited 6 months after the status changed to "ready for review". There have also been people who have had this status, and then all of a sudden NNAS decides they dont have all the documents they need and they say they need more before they can start the review. It's a...

    National Nursing Assessment Centre NNAS

    Your nursing education won't be deemed equivalent but CNO is likely to request information from your US employer about your job description and the work you do there. They will provide the documents so don't go ahead and gather this information yourself. They are likely to request this for...

    Study like crazy and do the IENCAP. I wouldn't recommend choosing taking further studies if you haven't attempted this exam. Because it would be a shame if you waited for a year or more to get into the required courses and do all of that work, when you could have just done the exam and passed...

    It will take you years, and it's very costly. You may have to take more courses as well. So please, please make sure that this is what you want before you start the process. Too many situations have ended in disappointment.

    1. No provincial nursing body is lenient 2. If your goal is to work as soon as possible, yes, apply for LPN also. It is very difficult to become a RN. Your NNAS Advisory Report will say "non-comparable" for RN but it may (no guarantee) say "somewhat comparable" for LPN. 3. You aren't able to...

    I'm not entirely sure, but I believe these courses are designed in such a way that if you pass them, CNO accepts that as having met education requirements. You are very very lucky to have been accepted into this program, so work your butt off. I wish you well!

    So then all you have to do is reply back and say you were not employed during that time period.

    National Nursing Assessment Centre NNAS

    NNAS makes mistakes all the time. Checks off boxes that the applicant didn't check off, etc. Which school did you obtain your nursing degree? Clinical hours as part of your nursing degree only count as evidence of practice when they are within the last 5 years. You might be confusing this...

    National Nursing Assessment Centre NNAS

    CNO or any other provincial licensing body won't care whether the Canadian embassy recognizes your nursing work experience. But it sounds like you are quite far into the planning process so you probably wouldn't want to stick around at home longer to get more work experience. The reason I'm...

    You can't even think about NCLEX until you've gone through NNAS, so NCLEX is likely a year or more in the future. National Nursing Assessment Service.

    If I were you I would not come to Canada until I had nursing work experience at home. Do you have your nurse registration in Philippines?
