IELTS is one of the requirement for a complete application. you have to write it before they can evaluate your file.
I underwent the old process so it just took them 2 weeks from the receipt of my academic and PRC documents to evaluate my credentials. But I have a friend who underwent NNAS, her reports have been with CNO for more than 5 months now, still without assessment report sent out even with constant follow up.Eann said:Hello everyone! Did anybody here applied for lpn in ontario? Just curious how long the process is nowadays. Thank u.
You can take the exam but they won't let you register sans english exam unless you can prove to them that your place of work's primary language was english. I tried to have the english requirement waived as well but I didn't even get a response from CNO itself so I just went ahead and took CELBAN instead to not further delay my registration. Hope I helped.efazilian said:hi! I'm applying for CNO-lpn..ready for review na nnas ko, just waiting for the advisory report..wala p kong IELTS/CELBAN, pnawaive ko lng sa nnas.
Question: may possibility bang mkakuha ako ng exam for LPN sa Ontario without the language reqt?
BSN po ako sa pinas plus 22 units ng MAN. then 2 yrs nsg exp. Sana may sumagot. Salamat mga kabayan!
Thank you for you response KMLRN! did you took any bridging course for lpn?KMLRN said:I underwent the old process so it just took them 2 weeks from the receipt of my academic and PRC documents to evaluate my credentials.

No. Also, I think CNO requires IENs to have recent clinical nursing experience. You need to be registered before your three-year safe nursing practice expires.Eann said:Thank you for you response KMLRN! did you took any bridging course for lpn?
May i know what did you do? Did you send a letter to waive your language proficiency?efazilian said:hi! I'm applying for CNO-lpn..ready for review na nnas ko, just waiting for the advisory report..wala p kong IELTS/CELBAN, pnawaive ko lng sa nnas.

Yes, basically as long as you send them a waiver letter. The College (cno) will have the final say on your registration process - if they will require you to take courses or just let you attempt the exam with all your credentials and all and safe nursing practice.kreystiyanpoll said:So that means, NNAS will still issue an advisory report without any language proficiency document? And i can still seat for the exam, however, later on, i can't register yet until i completed either ielts or celban

P.S. I am talking based on my experience early this year. I underwent the old process for my RPN license.
