Re: Uk nurse - usa
Starting would be applying to CGFNS for CES report as well as complete this form and send to the Texas state BON, suggest looking at page 13 which gives a list on what docs are required for International trained nurse https://www.bon.texas.gov/olv/pdfs/rnexam.pdf
http://www.cgfns.org/services/ces-professional-report/
http://www.pearsonvue.com/nclex/
Process can take approx 4 months depending on how timely you arrange for documents from your nursing school to be sent to CGFNS and then the BON will make a decision on whether to give you eligibility to sit NCLEX. If sat outside the US then you have to pay an extra $150 to pearsonvue who administer the exam so looking at approx costs of
Texas BON $125
CGFNS $350 plus $250 if you want to expediate the report
Pearsonvue $200 plus $150 for sitting exam outside the US. Do not apply to pearsonvue until you have been given the OK to sit the exam

As Silverdragon102 says is good.
I believe the NMC will do 3 licence verifications for same fee if done at the same time so get forms for TXBON & CGFNS done at same time.
Other than that its the even harder part of studying for the NCLEX which can be tough especially the Pharmacology.
Whats DCF?
I have noticed that it says this on the guidance
E) All international applicants must provide proof of working in nursing for a period totaling two (2) years (i.e. 24 months) at anytime after graduation from a nursing program.
