International Sponsorship
Visa Sponsorship for Registered Nurses
The EB-3 (Green Card) Visa
The Employment-Based (EB) or Green Card Visa is the visa of choice for US RN sponsorship with hCare. Once you are officially contracted with hCare, and have met the requirements needed to satisfy US Immigration, hCare will immediately begin the process of sponsoring you on this visa.
The EB Visa is intended for “skilled workers or professionals” who have at least a US Bachelor’s Degree in Nursing or foreign equivalent degree. In order to satisfy US Immigration requirements and become sponsored on an EB Visa as an international Registered Nurse, you must hold a US CGFNS Visa Screen Certificate.
CGFNS is the accredited organization that assesses your education, nursing license, and NCLEX-RN exam results to ensure you meet at least the equivalent of a US bachelor’s degree educated Registered Nurse. Your hCare Specialist will ensure you are prepared to earn the CGFNS.
