This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment QUESTION: I am an Indian national residing in the U.A.E. I passed the NCLEX-RN exam (Florida Board of Nursing) in Nov 2002 and already filed for BCIS (I-140E). I haven't got the NCLEX-RN licensure with reference to the Florida Statutes - Chapter 456.013(1)(b). Is it possible for me to obtain the NCLEX-RN licensure before entering to the USA, if I obtain an ITIN number? If possible, what is the procedure to obtain the ITIN number? ================================== david ingram replies Congratulations on passing your Florida exam but I do not know the answer. Hopefully, someone else on this board may. I will send it on. However, the application and instructions for an ITIN (Individual Taxpayer Identification Number) can be found at http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-fill/fw7.pdf Good Luck. We also need nurses in British Columbia, Canada where I live. It is also a pain to get accreditation here, but we do have a large population of immigrants from India living here.
