Hi,You will want to read all of the posts in this thread and then you will have a better understanding of what to expect. But the brief version is:
CNO will ask you to provide information on your nursing work experience. They will use this to determine whether your experience is enough to consider you to have met the education requirement. This could take an undetermined amount of time. Months for sure. If your work experience was in India it is not likely they will consider you to have met education requirements.
They will ask you to take the IENCAP. This exam is a full day and costs $500. If you pass then you will have met the education requirement and can then move forward with the other eligibility items, including taking the NCLEX-RN exam. The IENCAP is difficult to get a spot in. They only offer the exam about 8 times maximum per year. Enrol as soon as enrolment opens. Attend the free workshop run by HealthForce Ontario. After IENCAP you will get your result in about 8-10 weeks.
If you do not pass IENCAP then you will have to do more school. If by this point you haven't worked as a nurse for more than 3 years, you are screwed and will have to take the full nursing degree again likely.
I will entering Canada in few months on work Permit, I'm a Registered nurse .
After NNAS assessment report, can one immediately start practicing in Canada?
