Hi! I\'m a Canadian nurse that worked in the US and am headed back, permanently, this summer if all goes well with my consular interview.
Here\'s the skinny. You first need to get your license in the US and like Canada, you have to write your boards down there. Check out http://www.ncsbn.org/files/boards/boardscontact.asp to find a list of all state boards of nursing and their requirements for licensure. Getting a work visa is easy. You just need roughly $50, your canadian license, US license, degree or diploma, and an offer of employment. Trust me, show interest in a US hospital and they\'ll work you through ALL of this, esp. if you\'re an experienced RN. Hope this helps! eugene_hernandez@hotmail.com
