As long as you properly endorse it with your application it would be fine.

gud day po sayo mam. i took the IELTS and CGFNS and passed. i think they were 1-2 months apart of the same year of 2004. This 2009, i applied for VISA Screen. will my IELTS be valid or i have to redo the exam???
I am afraid that your IELTS results are already expired. Validity of the IELTS examination is only for 2 years I am not sure if the results would still be accepted by then if you want you can verify this either with CGFNS or with IDP Australia or the British Council.

I would just like to ask if there is a way to follow up the application for the NCLEX eligibility in California? I submitted all my requirements last October. A month later, I received a reply stating that all of them were accepted except for the “written explanation of not holding a license”. So I again submitted a letter stating I was already an RN here in the Philippines and I will be submitting a copy of my license once i received it. 5 days later, my license was released. I immediately sent a copy to them via mail. Based from the tracking number, they received it on December 2. Up to now, I still have no reply from them. I hope you could share some insights. Thank you very much.
The most reliable way wherein you could follow up with them is by giving them a call. There might have been some hold up with the applications due to the recent holiday season. You can reach them at this number: 1(916) 574-7697, Mondays to Fridays 8:00am- 5:00pm Pacific Time. Hope this info helped

Hi ! i have questions po regarding nclex RN ng California. i took the exam last dec at sinuwerte namang pumasa, hinihingian na ako ng SSN and I have 3 years daw or my file will be destroyed. Do i need to go to the US and have an employer within 3 years from the date i passed? What are the steps/requirements po to get an SSN? kung aabutan ako ng 3 year deadline what will happen? what can/should I do? please help me.ty
Of course the most logical thing is to really find an employer who can sponsor you to be able to work there. But with the retrogression this might take a longer period of time. What others do is that they endorse their license to another state but that of course has additional expenses since you need to fulfill the requirements of the state you are endorsing to. Some ask for an extension from the CA BON but so far I haven’t really personally met someone who did such and was successful at it. You still have a couple of years to go I suggest that you think things over first prior to making any moves when the deadline is near that is when you decide on what you would actually want to do. Hope this info helped.
