NCLEX Application Form New York State Board of Nursing
Applicants who have completed LPN or RN education outside of the US must have their education credentials verified by the Commission on Graduates of Foreign Nursing Schools (CGFNS). Such applicants should contact CGFNS at www.cgfns.org for the application and instructions to complete the CGFNS Credential Verification Service for New York State. Please note that this verification process is not the same as CGFNS’ Certification Program (which is required for registered nurse applicants applying for limited permits). The CGFNS Credentials Verification Service for New York State licensure applicants is a process for verifying the authenticity of education credentials. The CGFNS Credentials Verification Service for New York State does not indicate approval by the New York State Education Department of the content of education. After education credentials are verified by CGFNS, they are then forwarded to and evaluated by the New York State Education Department.
You will be advised in writing of the results of the New York State Education Department’s evaluation of your education. In addition, the licensing examination administrator will be notified if you are eligible for the examination.

hello I am studying here in the Philippines and I in my 1st year now as BSN student.I have heard that US are getting more strict with all the foreign grads due to con currency issue.Espcially with all the curriculum in the Philippines Im wondering if you guys have encouter any difficulties becoz of this issue?
Im US immigrant and came back here in the Philippines to study because its cheaper here but I am planning to move back to the States if I will encounter such problems..
I heard there are many things to accomplish once youre a foreign grad.
Pls give me some advice If you know about the con-currency issue in the states for foreign grads.
I ama member of allnurses.com and I read so many issues regradig difficulties in taking the exams and get approve for NCLEX bec. of con currency issue.

Hello,
I want to apply Nclex in State of New york but I cannot download the form. Please do help me. Reply me in my e mail as soon as possible, pls……
I already took my NCLEX Exam last year and luckily I passed… I receieved a letter that i passed and I also found an agency here in the Philippines that can help me go to US but they were asking me about a certificate of passing from New York. since, I never received my copy of this I would like to ask if somebody knows how to get this?
I also read some queries here. This is what I did.
1. I applied for the Credential Verification Services of CGFNS. I think this took me about 9 months to get done.
2. I took the seminar about Child Abuse and Infection Control at http://www.rn.com. You can pay 40 dollars for unlimited seminar for a year so I think that that would be better that paying 40 dollars for only two seminars. They will give you your certificate for Infection Control but the Child Abuse i think will be automatically sent to NYSED.
3. Then I applied to take my NCLEX… This took me about 6-7 months I think.
4. Then i receieved my Authorization to take the Test which is only lasted for three months so i suggest you study already. Then i scheduled my exam and took it a Trident Tower in Makati, Philippines… 🙂
Good luck to those who will take the exam!!! 🙂
Hi Kenneth, I have a question for you and anyone who might know the answer– should I send my application forms to NYSED and CGFNS to cut the waiting time?
@labayani- you need to have your credentials evaluated by CGFNS first before you can proceed in applying for NCLEX. visit website cgfns.org to check CVS for New York State application.
@maricar- as long as you have a tourist visa, you can take NCLEX exam in New York provided your credentials and license have already been evaluated by CGFNS for authenticity and they have already sent it to NYSED, thus found it sufficient and met the New York’s licensure requirement. for more info, visit website of cgfns.org. application is available online.Regarding your preparedness for the examination depends on your study habit. some people takes 1 month and 2 weeks and others 6 months 😉 Goodluck!
i think they only accept evaluation from CGFNS, and for maricar, they wont let you take the exam because they will require you SOCIAL SECURITY #. and to get that you must have green card so i guess you wont be able to take the exam.

Just put NA or not applicable to all the questions that doesn’t apply to you.
This question is usually for single women who married or women who re-married and changed their names.
Or for people who just chnaged their names for their own reasons.
