Answer 1

there are no short cuts. as you already know, there are thousands and thousands of filipino nurses who took everything (CGFNS, NCLEX, IELTS, TOEFL, TSE) and are still waiting for their visas since 2002. some of my college classmates tried to get work by coming here on tourist visas. that route doesn't work anymore.

you need the NCLEX because without it, you cannot get a US license.

why don't you try canada instead. work for a couple of years in the philippines to get experience and then apply for canada. some of their provinces are taking filipino nurses (saskatchewan and manitoba for example). processing takes less than a year.

you can give up on your american dream for now. besides, there really is not that much difference between canada, US, australia, new zealand and UK. you're still able to get a good life if you work hard anywhere in these countries. having a "US" on your address doesn't matter. only to filipinos back in the philippines (so dumb).

If you are legal to work in the usa . Go to the local employment office ,or a temporary agent, and the news paper ads
