If you can find out the name of nurse recruiter at any hosp there, try looking in a nursing magazine, or just call phone info & get # of any hosp in the area you want to move to,then call. I bet the hosp you contact will be thrilled to hear from you & will help you with all the details, the nursing shortage is so bad over here! I mean, really bad!

As other posters have said, the waiting time is long right now.  It might help if you are qualified to work in Canada in a profession where there is a shortage of workers.  These links should help you.  Best of luck.

You just cross over the boarder into British Columbia, going thru Canadian Customs. Just make sure you have some photo ID on you. Have fun!

I doubt. But, I'm not in the field. However, I'm from where using British system. So for British system, students study in Medicine only get a MBBS degree, which is a bachelor degree. But for Canada and US system, it's a MD degree, which is a doctoral degree. So I can assume you can't work in Canada without exam.

Unfortunately, as I keep hearing from other immigrants to Canada,  your professional accreditation from Iran or almost any other country will probably not be accepted in getting a job in the medical profession here. I recently heard of a Pediatrician from Moscow who was told she did not qualify to become a nurse without going back to school and starting her medical training over again from scratch.\n\nAs a Russian nuclear physicist (now a Canadian electrician) said to me last week, Canada doesn't want smart professionals, they want smart labourers.\n\nI wish you the best of luck...

No. You do not need to be a Licensed Vocational Nurse before you become a Registered Nurse. However, it can help for continuing education students.

If you are Canadian, a work visa isn't difficult to obtain. \nIn IT, it doesn't matter where you have experience, because IT is IT wherever you are.\n\nGood Luck!!

i believe you actually need to make an appointment with your local social services. you can't do this online. they need to see the actual documents that denote you are a canadian entitled to EI. it's Employment Insurance.

hello, \n\nYou have a couple choices.  You may apply for Canadian Permanent Residence once you have married your finace.  While this is pending (which may take a while dpeending on the Consulate/country of origin) you may enter canada as a visitor.  without knowing what country you are from, you may eithr need a visa to enter or you may simply request a visitor visa at the border. \n\nYou may look at the family immigration section at www.cic.gc.ca

So you are graduating nursing school in 3 weeks! Congratulations! That is amazing. But since you got fired for failure to toilet a resident, that is also known as resident abuse. Yes by all means be honest, because all they have to do is pull up your cna records and see your history, and if you lie to them, that will impair you chance of any jobs. Be honest! Everyone can and does make mistakes, tell you new employer that you learned your lesson, and you were wrong not to take the resident to the toilet when you should have, and just how bad you feel about that and that your only asking for a chance to start over in your new career. I hope this helps you out, I am a CNA / Medic / LPN and I have heard of CNA's and other professions not being honest when applying for a position in a health career and it came back and bit them in the butt if you know what I mean.   Good Luck!

You can stay for as long as you like, you just can't work. A TN Visa is tied to a specific offer of employment. You can hunt around for another job, but if you get an offer the company in question has to provide a letter of offer, understanding they are hiring a Canadian for the position, etc, etc... then you have to go back to a port of entry and reapply for a TN visa. Its a convoluted process, but that's the way it is.

Well unless you lied on your application, is the only way really.\n\nIf you entered legally, and are not a burden on the system you should be ok.\n\nWelcome to Canada

All the major cities. I live in Toronto, Ontario and there are hundreds. Usually combined with Pedicure,Manicure and the Acrylic Nails. Will you be able to get a Social Insurance Card? Without one, you can't work legitimately in this country. Just like your Green Card.

You should still have it, depends on how long you've not worked in Indiana.  You know some states require you work at least 2 out of 365 days.  Call the Indiana state nursing board and ask them if you're still registered.  Ohio has a website, Indiana may also.

Mainly, it depends on the type of company you are applying to work for.\nIf it is any government or city agency, or a bank then yes.\nAlso, if it is for a hospital, airline, or something similar to that then, you can count on them verifying it.\nIf it is mcdonalds or walmart, most likely, they will not check it out. LOL\n\ngood luck!

In Canada it would show up but not prohibit employment. I do not think you have anything to worry about even if it does show up and you will have a chance to explain anyway.
