Filipina Nurse going to US to work

[KP&RP 4]

Hey guys!

So my cousin just recently graduated as nurse in the Philippines and she wanted to work here in NY. What is the best way for her to work here?

Marry a USC.

Get NCLEX and apply for work in NY. If you go for relative petition then say around 20 years more? I believe if your cousin wants to be a citizen then the fastest way is to marry a USC but if the person wants to work and venture into finding love someday in the US then apply for a working visa.

Your cousin will have to find an employer who will file a petition for her to work in the US.

Does she have a lot of work experience? It's hard right now for new grad nurses to find work in many areas right now.

If she does not want to marry, to get here and can not find an employer to sponsor, then try Canada, after a few years there apply for Canadian citizenship and immigrate to the U.S. that way. and much easire for a Philippine citizen to get a tourist visa when they live and work in Canada than from the Philippines. I have a realtive that did it that way.

If she tries the Canadian route, be careful and read the contract carefully. Canadian companies, especially in the remote areas, are notorious for abusing their foreign workers. You may get promised a job in a major city, with a large hospital, but instead find yourself in a small village clinic somewhere out on the tundra, and a big bill from the agency that made it all possible for that to happen.

Your cousin can work here by using sponsor visa. Please verify weather sponsor visa is available for nursing field with your local Immigration consultant. so that u can get idea for further proceedings.

Never use a consultant.

PS If you are are interested google visa, nurse, retrogression.
