NNAS for Canada - comparable for RN and RPN
Hi all
So I've received my report from the NNAS who have said I'm comparable for RN and RPN (I'm a british Adult nurse). I never thought it would actually happen as it has taken more than a year and a few complaints so I've already accepted a new job and moving home within the UK. What are the next steps? Should I apply for the RN with CNO and start the process? how long will that take? I'd like to move in around 2 years to give me chance to be in my new house a while and to do my new job would that be doable? thanks for your help

CNO is not known for quickness but I would start it now because the process could still take a few years because once you meet CNO requirements you still have to sort out pr or work permit depending on route your taking

Thanks. I’ve applied to CNO but they need time to do a police background check. I’ve gone through the link but it says I need a Canadian address and to take proof of address to a Canadian post office?! I live in the Uk 😵💫😵💫😵💫 this gets more and more complex.
