FILIPINO NURSES applying for CNO REGISTRATION ONLY - English and Tagalog posts

[coffeecity]

hi everyone...

i applied for RN-CNO.. with experience, graduated MN major in MSN...
the CNO informed me that they received all my docs from my employer, school, PRC, and personal application..

they also sent me an optional letter..whether to withdraw my application or to continue to pass some documents.. regarding course sylllabus, subject description, etc, regarding BSN/MN school docs... but if I will not send them back the optional letter after 40 days from the date of their letter they replied.. they will continue to assess the docs they have received..

my question is,...is there anyone here in this forum who was able to send back to CNO the optional letter.. or.. is there anyone here who was able to pass the optional letter that they chose to continue to pass additional docs for further assessment... ??

thank you.. and God bless us all in all our endeavors...

I believe majority of the forumers (including me) applying for RN with CNO, passed the option form. This means that we wanted CNO to continue with the assessment hoping that our credentials and other documents are good enough for us to be eligible to sit for the CRNE. I think if you opted not to submit the option form, you will have a lesser chance of taking their local boards and might be required to undergo the costly bridging program, in which the length of study depends on the credentials that you have submitted to them.

"my question is,...is there anyone here in this forum who was able to send back to CNO the optional letter.. or.. is there anyone here who was able to pass the optional letter that they chose to continue to pass additional docs for further assessment... ?? " - assuming that you opted to submit the option letter and continue with your application, aren't your questions the same?

Anyways just like what I've mentioned above, non-submission of the option letter would mean lesser chance to sit for the CRNE and greater probability of being required to undergo the bridging program.

Hope my answer helps..

in preparing for the CRNE, i plan to bring my nursing books.

I have books that has this statement "this book is for sale only in the Philippines", any idea from the forumers if this is allowed to bring?

Thank you.

welcome to the thread abbyrn...

yes, your school should submit an original copy of your TOR... unless protocol ng school mo is to provide a certified true copy lang... regardless, it should be provided by your school, in whatever manner they present their documents... but if your school gives you an option, request for an original copy of your TOR to be submitted to the college... kasi pini-print lang naman nila yan sa official paper nila dapat hindi ba? then you pay the fees...

i hope this helps... goodluck on your application...

Hi! I'm a newbie in this forum. I'm a RN here in the Philippines with only 3 years experience and we're on process of migration under FSW. do I need to take the bridging program in Ontario?.. does anyone here has an idea on how much it will cost to study there? thanks!

the first step is to apply for assessment... only the CNO can decide if you need to undergo a bridging program or not... bridging programs, if required, are tailored individually, depending on the outcome of your assessment... i'm not sure about the entire length of the program but i think it is two years but may be less for others... again, this will depend on your assessment... so you will never really know the answer to your question until you have yourself assessed... super redundant ata ang post ko hahaha!

goodluck!
