CARCENAL

Hi,i need guidance in my visascreen application. I am a registered nurse and already passed my nclex and ielts. I would like to apply for visascreen but do not know where to start.What is the first step I should take? What are the fees I should pay? Please help.

Well first you can dowload the application at the CGFNS site. From there try to read through the instructions that comes with the forms. You can either mail the application or apply online which is far more convenient. There would be forms that needs to be accomplished by your school, PRC and IELTS so after applying to CGFNS you need to do those. Its important to apply to CGFNS first since you’ll be needing the order # form that they will provide once you applied. Fees are mentioned in the forms estimate of about $300 or so and then of course there will be fees incurred when you request stuff from your school, PRC and IELTS.

I am no longer connected with PinoyBSN and welcome to my site called Philippine Nurses Info

i just wanna clarify ung about sa ADDRESS na pwede po gamitin?, So, i’m here in the philippines ,and can i use ung california address ng relative ko, sa lahat po ba ng mga forms?, including the fingerprint card? and forms na i-mail ng school, kahit na po im residing in the phil and planning to take the exam here, hindi po kaya magka conflict or i-question ako ng CA.BON why california ang address ko and i’ve never been there?  i’ m really confused .. others told me na philippine address daw dapat sa forms ko and then ung outside envelope for mailing envelope lang ang california address?, ganun po ba?,

Yes that is fine you are only using the California address for mailing purposes. It would be conflicting to have a Philippine address in your documents and then using a California address in others. You choose either one of the two.

hi, just wanna ask, how can I get an ATT, I just got my Eligibility form Cali BON last Jan. 2009 Thank you so much.

After getting your eligibility, you need to register to PearsonVue to get your ATT. Registration is $200 and additional $150 if taking the exam outside US territories. Please bear in mind that once you register with PearsonVue you are given one year to take the examination. Just make sure when you register, you are ready to take the exam within the year.

I’m having a problem. Malapit na po ako makumpleto sa mga reqts ko sa nclex cali except po yung payment for application fee and fingerprint hard scan. Kailangan po ba talaga na may naka-attach na payment na bankdraft don? Or is there a way po to pay them through credit card after ipadala po yun reqts? Wala po kasi akong dollar account for the demand draft or bank draft.

Your application will not be processed without the application fee. You just need to go to a bank and ask for their process on how to make a bank draft. A bank draft is similar to a manager’s check. It would be best to go to a bank where you have an account so they can assist you better. Hope this helped. Also make sure to make the draft payable to BOARD OF REGISTERED NURSING.

If you have no experience after schooling then write none. As for your nursing education you will write BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN NURSING as degree obtained. I hope this answered your question.

I failed the Vermont- Nclex for the 2nd time,I just want to ask about the  re-take application form because they revised it. Do I need to accomplish  the page 5, “Verification of International Registered Nursing licensure-Re Take Enclosure?  I sent already the copy of my professional license certified by PRC way back 2007.

There is a revised form for NCLEX-RN Retake for Vermont. Please be reminded that you must complete a formal NCLEX review as stated in the forms. I think you should accomplish that form and have it sent to PRC since this part of the revised application.
