Hi,

Yes that`s true. Most of the states don`t need FPGEE certificate to start your Pharmacy internship. Like in the state of Indiana, Wisconsin and Michigan, if you may find a pharmacy that is ready to get your H-1 and ready to sign your Pharmacy Internship application methods, than the state board of pharmacy like Indiana staete board of Pharmacy gives you the Pharmacy Internship certificate and than you may immediately start working at that Pharmacy. But the key point is to find a Pharmacy in this situation.
Like although I live in Illinois because Illinois state board of Pharmacy don`t accept foreign students with FOUR years Degree Pharmacy, we have to go the other states in which we may practice pharmacy. Only Illinois no matter what doesn`t count on you as pharmacist. So, I talked with state board of Pharmacy in Indiana and got "OK!".But I want to wait till I get my FPGEE certificate so in the meantime I can concentrate on my studies and so that when I finish my internship, I can easily go on working for the same Pharmacy.

But , of course that`s a good news for people, who really want to start as soon as they may.

Best of luck,
Leyla

Dear Madhu,
http://www.state.ma.us/reg/boards/ph/faq.htm#2 . This adress explains the requirements for foreign pahrmacist to be licensed in MA.
But for internship processses it does not say whether you need a FPGEE certifcate or not. So you would like to call the board of pharmacy.
And also, before going to a lwayer, ask the pharmacy if they arae willing to take you aH-1. Because although lawyers ask for the FPGEE many people graduated from foerign countries got their H-1 for internship without entreing the FPGEE.
There is a list of pharmacies at this web site , you may want to make al ist of the pharmacies that are close to your neighboorhood, and call them to ask your situation. That`s what many people did.

You need FPGEE to work as a pharmacist I mean to sit for the state exam, NAPLEX. So contunie on searching pharmacies and tell them that you want to start your internship while getting ready to FPGEE. I think that will work.

Best of luck,
Leyla

Dear Madhu,

Everybody learn something new from a different person. That`s life. God said " Read and don`t afraid to ask, and if you know explain and answer." I don`t know everything and I am learning a lot from people in different ways. And we are going for the same goal so it is great that we have a place to pass these information.

So, now we all have to study for this exam and contunie to help each other.
