Best options I can think is of you can study in US and finish DPharm ( really good opportunity for job and money)

Or you can learn medical billing and coding or something? Not lot of knowledge in medical fields.

Want to Speed up NVC Process ?


Check Guides From Guide section for doccuments and list of stuff and follow this steps


Step 1 After USCIS NOA2 Gather all AOS / IV Package Documents In 3 weeks


Between USCIS Approving and NVC Case Number you have 2 to 3 weeks gather all AOS and IV Documents Get package ready.


Step 2 Obtain NVC Invoice and Case number.


​After 2 weeks of NOA2 Keep on Calling NVC every day to get case number And Invoice number


Step 3 Pay First Fee and DS261


After getting NVC Case Number and Invoice Number Log in to webpage Pay First Fee and Fill out DS261 Takes 24 to 38 Hr to get fee status paid.

What state do you live?

I am in Texas. I have BS degree in Pharmacy (5 years) from my home country and now I'm a registered pharmacist working in the pharmacy. I did not attend any more pharmacy school to get Pharm D, I just went ahead and tried to obtain Pharmacist License.

When I first got here 5 years ago, I started to do research how to obtain Pharmacist License here.I found out it is very long journey with 4 exams and 1,500 hours of internship and I did not want to wait that long to start working. So I just went to take Pharmacy Technician exam and passed. It is very easy, you only need to refresh your knowledge and study more on pharmacy state law. I bought a book of pharmacy tech exam prep and that was enough to get me passed the exam.

I did not take any courses at all. Your knowledge as a pharmacist is enough to pass the exam!

Then I got a job as a pharmacy technician, it is a decent pay. It took me 1.5 years to pass all 4 exams and another 1 year for 1,500 internship hours and all those time I had been working as a pharmacy tech till the day I got my License.

So my advise is go get pharmacy tech license, you can look at all the job boards on internet, there are opening positions everywhere!
