Thanks @vickyehi.
....Can any agency sponsor one for such make-up programme ? If no, how much can it cost? And, if I run such programme, will it be considered that I meet English language requirement ie IELTS?
.....Is it possible to get permanent Residency as a Nurse in Nigeria without duly registered with any BON in Canada? If possible, how?
Thanks in anticipation

1.......No agency sponsors you for such in canada. Depending on your status(PR or citizen) you may be able to get loans.
2........I have no idea about the cost (research it yourself)
3........No, you MUST PASS IELTS to meet the english proficiency requirements.
4......yes you cam be a PR without starting or finishing the licensing process as an RN in Canada. Visit the thread below and read from page 1 to know how.

You need to pick up the paper results (Test result form/TRF). It has a reference number which you will need to enter the pool.

BEEJAY452:
Thanks @vickyehi. More questions pls:

From your experience, (1) is BNSc in Nigeria 'somewhat equivalent' or 'not equivalent'?
(2) lf the skills assessment test shows one will need 1year to up program for instance, what is the way forward?
(3) I read in one of your post that RM + RN was considered for you as two or more certificate how come BNSc + RN + RPON will only be bachelor degree or which one will give more point?

1.....Bsn from naija are mostly somewhat comparable to lpn and not comparable to Rn but that assessment is somewhat irrelevant because even when Nnas says not comparable, you can still apply to the BON as they have the final say.

2.....you find a school that conducts the program and register. There is often a wait list that could be 12mths long.

3....it considered because I did the programs separately. That is school of nursing for 3 years and school of midwifery for 18mths hence I had 2 different academic transcript.

BEEJAY452:
@vickyehi,
Pls is BNSc in Nigeria equivalent to Canadian BScN for RN registration with Ontario or any other province? Or would they require someone to do makeup studies?
How many certificate can someone claim with BNSc, RN and RPON with IQAS for PR/immigration? Thanks in anticipation.

1.......Nnas would give a report of "not equivalent" or "somewhat equivalent".
2........Depends on your result from the assessment test of your skills, you may be referred to do at least a 1 year to 4years top up program.
3........for immigration, you can claim it as just a bachelors degree (1cert).

Olenyhc:
No I didn't. We combined the course together with nursing in school, then wrote the exam afterwards. Thats a bit of a problem cause I can't do anything with it alone without nursing showing in the background. Although we did the final year clinicals separately.

Then I may be wrong but I dont know if you can assess that as a separate certificate. Mine was obtained in school of midwifery hence i had a transcript from a different school for my midwifery.

I know a lady who was trying to evaluate her public health certification (which is awarded as part of the BSN ) to give 2 certificates with iqas but it didnt work. They responded that they needed a transcript and separate certificate for that degree.

So if you want to try it then by all means do it. At the worst future candidates would be able to rule that out. Midwifery is a 4 year university degree program here in canada.

Pls keep us updated on the outcome of this evaluation. Thank you!
All the best

Yes you can combine it. I would advise you to start iqas for your RM because WES would be a waste of time and money. You can check through my profile and you would see a sample of how wes assesses RM and RN from school of nursing.

Please, one more thing, what if my license is not up to date, will it affect the process?

Have you applied to nmcn to send wes the verification?
Because if you are waiting for them to receive mail and do it on their own then you are in for a surprise because you would have to pay the nmcn verification fee before they attend to Wes request.

Also you would need to renew your license before nmcn answers your request for verification.

Hello my fellow nurses,
Please I used WES for evaluation before I found out about IQAS. I initially evaluated b.sc but I recently did an upgrade because I have an RM too [want to use it as additional certificate]. The process right now is at the point of verification. They said they are waiting for verification from nursing council. I think this is a new development just like the WAEC requirement cause I didn't see anything like it when i evaluated my b.sc. please who has encountered this before? how long does it take for NMCN to send verification? Do I need to contact them or anything like that to nudge them? Please someone help!

I doubt wes would recognize your RM. You may just have to initiate the process of evaluating just the RM with iqas. Wes always says it's not equivalent.

Anyways I pray all those trying to Migrate from one place to another finds favour in all our applications.

Before I left naija, I vowed to myself that I wont be one of those "aunty wey mumu" that you would ask how she migrated and she would tell you ....."it was just prayer and grace of God, I dint even know what happened".....mtchewwwww.

I told myself that I may not have cash to distribute but along my journey I found out that knowledge is power and indeed many Nigerians perish for lack of knowledge.

I also said I wont be one of those people telling you that abroad na just suffer. Yes you would work hard and frankly you would be payed as hard as you work. What you safe from that depends on your responsibilities back home and your life style.

All those aunties and uncles shouting that USA or Canada or even the UK is hard, have you ever seen them return back home to save their self the so called hardship?

People that return back to Nigeria either have "surname", have made it big and want to invest in a business or the country dey pursue them.

So my people dont be discouraged. Speaking for Canada, it's better to work here as a health care aide or even janitor than to be in that catholic hospital or federal hospital self in naija. That's as far as income is concerned.

Okay am glad you are in America. FYI am not "struggling" to come to the states. As a Canadian permanent resident, I can go in and out of the states on a daily basis if I so please.

I dont know the route you came in through but if it wasnt legal then it's those categories of people that should have the fear of trump.

Not struggling abroad is a function of so many things including how you spend your money. If most people you know are poor then please change your friends because na you pick them undecided

Also I don't like hypocrites. you say you are not in Nigeria and you are asking others not to leave. AUNTY HAVE YOU BOUGHT YOUR RETURN TICKET huh

I am very aware of this denaturalization task force and law.
What you are failing to understand is that there is NOTHING ILLEGAL nor Fraudulent about our applications.

Permanent residence is a privilege and not a right in every country(not just the states). You can only become a citizen after being a permanent resident for a set number of years(depending on the country).

Immigration fraud is anything you lie about or state to mislead a Visa officer during your immigration process. Thus is a person os found to be guilty of said fraud irrespective of the person's current immigration status( ie Permanent resident or citizen), that status which was gotten under fraud can be withdrawn.

This means if they catch the lie you told in your application during the application, you can get a ban. If it is caught after your application then you can get the statis taken away and you would face deportation. That's what trump's task force is all about(finding out the lies)

Thus in immigration matters, HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY.

So my dear "knowah" that is highly educated, that's not what immigrating as nurse is all about.

Sorry I didn't answer your second question.
YES YES YES I would rather struggle in another man's land than in Nigeria as a Registered Nurse.

My reason is very personal and it is simply because it was because of the USA I was motivated enough to finish my Nursing school in Nigeria.

That Nigerian struggle was paying a friend of mine 1.2m per year as a teaching hospital staff.
Right now, the struggle in "another man's land" pays her 33m per year.

So please oga or aunty is it your struggle undecided

I dont know if you are a Registered Nurse but if you are then you are highly misinformed and it's a shame. If you arent, then please take your time to inform yourself.

RNs ARE NOT ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS. As a matter of fact, the USA, CANADA, UK and all western countries NEEDS OUR SERVICES.

Your statement is so funny and full of ignorance.
FYI......Registered Nurses migrate to the usa with their GREEN CARD APPROVED BEFORE LEAVING THEIR COUNTRY OF RESIDENCE. So we can walk straight from the airport to the White House and Nothing would happen.

Am sorry but your argument isnt fact based. NO ONE HATES ME AND I LIVE IN CANADA. I have lived in canada for over 2yrs now.

Short story:
I was on my way to work on a faithful day. It was a bloody cold day, with a temperature of -38 degree celcius. (To put that temperature into perspective for you, your deep freezer is -25 at it's best).

So on this day, I was trying to get to work early because the Nigerian in me made me late grin

. So I took a short cut to work. There was a wind storm and I couldnt see where I was driving to( it was like someone took white powder in a tray and put on the industrial fan).

Long story short, i skidded off the road into a pile of snow by the shoulders of the road. A white family whom i have never met stopped their truck, and came out to help me. 1 woman in her 60s, 2 guys in like 30s or late 20s and a lady in maybe her 40s. Anyways these total strangers came out in that biting cold to help me.

We got the car out of the ditch even before my colleagues arrived. They didnt ask me to find them "small thing". cheesy

If you wanna stay in Nigeria pls do. Nigeria would always have my love but not my residence tongue

. At least not at this stage of my life.

Thank you for these post. My wife was a nurse in Nigeria before moving to Europe. She do not have all the requirements that the agency are asking for. So my question is can we do it alone?? Starting from Cgnfs to Nclex?? Can we get Agency once these are scaled through?? And will the requirements won't be like before??

Please, your advice will be appreciated.
Thanks

It depends on what the requirements are but let's say it's a requirement that she must be working in a 100bed ward, that requirement would likely not change.
Yes you can do it alone. Also, employers are more vested after you have passed your NCLEX-RN.
