6 months

but what is you are applying as the dependent (not the primary applicant).. does it matter then?

If you are dependent, your status won't matter. I have known someone and got the PR like that.

Someone else can still confirm this though..

ssandy, yes you can still apply to immigrate to canada even though you are out of status in U.S.
If you have a valid visa for at least a year here in us, you can file to one of the offices here in U.S.
If you entered here in US as a tourist and you were granted less than a year, you can definitely apply as FSW to canada to your country of origin. RN is listed on one of the 38 occupational list that are highly in demand in canada and will be fast tracked provided you meet the rest of the requirements.
Check CIC website, there you will see the needed requirements.
I am a nurse myself, out of status here in US, applied in CIC-MANILA and just waiting for my medical request.
Start your application ASAP, nurses are really in high demand in CANADA and everywhere else.

ssandy, if for example you are from the Philippines and you overstay your visitors visa in US and you plan to apply to Canada, your application can be processed in US provided you have a valid one year stay here in US. If you dont have one, you can still apply but the office that will process your application will be the one from your country of origin, which is the Philippines. You dont need to go back to the Philippines to process your application, you can process it here, meaning you provide all the requirements/documentation needed while you are here. The only time you need to go back to the Philippines is when you are called for an interview. There are a lot of reasons why a particular applicant is being called for an interview.
So make sure from the start, that your application are all in order, well documented.
