Host Deirdre O’Regan, Senior Director of Recruitment at AMN Healthcare International, is joined by immigration attorneys Chris Musillo and Mike Hammond along with AMN colleague Ed, to unpack the most recent visa bulletin.

Released unusually late—on September 29th—this month's bulletin brought retrogression for Rest of World EB-3 categories, a modest two-week advancement for Philippine EB-3, and no spillover numbers. The panel explained what's behind the delays, what it means for nurses currently in the pipeline, and—most importantly—what candidates can do right now to stay prepared and minimize self-inflicted delays.

Despite the disappointing headline numbers, the panel identified several silver linings: positive movement on the F-1 front, optimism for Philippine EB-3 progression throughout the fiscal year, and the likelihood of more embassy interviews resuming in October. The overarching message was clear: don't get discouraged. The process has its cycles, and those who stay prepared will be ready when the green light comes on.

Chris Musillo —Attorney at Musillo Unkenholt Law, Chris is an experienced immigration lawyer specializing in employment-based visa petitions. He provides guidance on H-1B filings, green card processes, and the ever-shifting visa bulletin landscape for healthcare workers.

Mike Hammond - With more than 30 years of experience in immigration law, Mike brings deep expertise in EB-3 visa categories, priority date movement, and the intersection of policy and practicality for international nurses navigating the U.S. immigration system.

Ed S. —AMN Healthcare International colleague and advocate for international nurses, Ed draws on years of experience working directly with clinicians in the immigration pipeline. He focuses on the candidate experience, employer relationships, and keeping nurses encouraged through extended retrogression periods.

Deirdre O. —Senior Director of Recruitment at AMN Healthcare International and host of the Onwards and Upwards show. Deirdre brings a warm, knowledgeable perspective to every episode, connecting immigration experts with the international nurse community.

·      The October 2026 visa bulletin was the latest ever released—dated September 4th but not published until September 29th, likely due to ongoing litigation involving 75 countries.

·      Rest of World EB-3 retrogressed approximately four months, from September 2024 back to May 2024.

·      Philippine EB-3 advanced by just two weeks, but the dates of filing moving to January 2024 signals the category should continue to progress through the fiscal year.

·      Nurses with a Philippine EB-3 priority date in 2023 have a better-than-even chance of receiving a visa interview this fiscal year.

·      There was no family spillover in this bulletin—an unexplained development that left the panel puzzled.

·      The Department of State is moving cautiously because of uncertainty around 43,000 visa numbers tied to the 75-country litigation.

·      Embassy interviews are beginning to resume—London was cited as an early example—and a court order from Judge Vargas directed the State Department to continue interviewing applicants.

·      The travel ban on 39 countries remains in effect; the litigation around the 75-country pause does not affect those bans.

·      H-1B petitions face an informal pause as the Trump administration attempts to enforce a $100,000 fee that courts have repeatedly found impermissible. Resolution is expected, but the timing is uncertain.

·      F-1 students received some good news—the duration of status rule change was blocked by a court ruling on September 13th, largely restoring things to normal, with some lingering uncertainty around CPT programs.

·      Candidates preparing for embassy interviews should be ready across five public charge factors: financial ability, education and skills, age, personal health, and family status.

·      AMN Healthcare International is the only organization offering both direct hire and staffing opportunities for candidates with current priority dates.

Welcome to another episode of the Nursing in America podcast. In the second part of this mini-series, we hear directly from two international nurses who faced one of the most challenging setbacks a nurse can experience on the journey to the United States — a rescinded contract — and came out the other side stronger, wiser, and living their American Dream.

Mark G., a nurse from the Philippines, and Mohammad A., a nurse from Jordan, share their comeback stories in their own words. Joined by Danielle, host and advocate, and Ed S., Senior Director of Operations and Technology at AMN Healthcare International, this episode is a powerful reminder that the path forward is rarely a straight line and that the right support makes all the difference.

This episode picks up where Part 1 left off, diving into what happens after a contract is rescinded and how to move forward. Mark and Mohammad share honest, encouraging accounts of their own restart journeys, from navigating immigration timelines to finding a new employer. Ed walks listeners through how AMN Healthcare International supports each nurse individually, outlining two key pathways (staffing and direct-hire) and why nurses with an existing priority date are highly attractive to new employers.

Key Takeaways

·      Your Place in Line is Protected: A rescinded contract does not mean starting over from scratch. Your priority date can be recaptured and preserved.

·      Two Clear Pathways Forward: AMN Healthcare International offers two routes: staffing (temp-to-perm through O'Grady Peyton International) and direct-hire (through Connetics).

·      Speed is Possible: Mohammad secured a new employer within one month and completed the full recapture process within two months.

·      Rescinded Nurses Are Attractive Candidates: Employers recognize the value of hiring a nurse who already has an established priority date.

·      The Journey is Not Always Linear: Both Mark and Mohammad describe a period of slowness followed by rapid momentum.

·      Control What You Can: Improve your qualifications, complete licensing and English requirements, and make yourself as marketable as possible.

·      Trust and Partnership Matter: Having a knowledgeable, experienced partner guiding you through the process can reduce the stress of an already complex journey.

Timestamps

·      00:00 – 02:30 – Cold Open & Recap: A quick look back at Part 1 and an introduction to Mark and Mohammad's comeback stories

·      02:30 – 08:30 – The Recapture Process: Ed S. explains how AMN evaluates rescinded nurses, what the recapture process looks like, and why two pathways exist

·      08:30 – 13:30 – Two Comebacks, In Their Own Words: Mark and Mohammad share their personal timelines.

·      17:30 – 20:15 – Closing Advice From Those Who Lived It: Mohammad, Ed, and Danielle offer practical and motivational guidance for nurses facing a similar crossroads

·      20:15 – 21:00 – Wrap-Up & Call to Action: A final message of encouragement and next steps for nurses ready to take action.

In this packed immigration Q&A session, host Deirdre is joined by immigration attorneys Chris Musillo and Mike Hammond to break down some of the most significant developments in the U.S. immigration space. This includes the September Visa Bulletin, the 75-country visa pause, changes affecting H-1B and F-1 visa holders, and more. This episode delivers real-time insights for international healthcare professionals navigating their path to the United States.

The session opens with an inspiring testimonial from Muhammad, a UK-based nurse who just received his EB-3 visa for himself and his family, which is a powerful reminder that the American Dream is absolutely within reach.

·      The September Visa Bulletin showing no movement is normal and reflects the end of the U.S. fiscal year. 

·      The 75-country visa pause is actively being challenged in federal court.

·      A global immigrant visa interview pause was reportedly issued by the Department of State as a response to the court ruling.

·      Unused family-based visas from fiscal year 2025 have already carried over, increasing the employment-based visa pool for fiscal year 2026 to approximately 186,000.

·      Fiscal year 2027 may see another surplus, potentially reaching up to 215,000 employment-based visas.

·      H-1B cap cases face a proposed new filing fee of over $100,000, currently under a 30-day public comment period.

·      The $100,000 overseas H-1B fee proclamation expires September 21–22, which could reopen cap-exempt H-1B filings.

·      Major F-1 visa rule changes took effect September 15, including new restrictions on changing programs, CPT authorization, and grace periods.

·      Rest-of-world EB-3 candidates with an approved I-140 are well-positioned to become current as early as October.

·      Processing times remain long, but premium processing (at approximately $3,000) remains an available option for faster I-140 adjudication.

What happens when the contract you've been counting on suddenly disappears? For thousands of international nurses pursuing careers in the United States, a rescinded contract can feel like the end of the road. In this powerful first installment of a two-part episode, host Danielle F. sits down with two registered nurses — Mark G. from the Philippines and Mohammad A. from Jordan — alongside AMN Healthcare International's Senior Director of Operations and Technology, Ed S., to talk honestly about what it feels like when your immigration journey takes an unexpected turn.

Key Takeaways

• A rescission is not the end.
• Priority dates are your most valuable immigration asset.
• The journey isn't always a straight line.
• You don't have to figure it out alone.

Welcome back to another episode of the Nursing in America live show. This session tackles one of the most pressing topics on every international nurse's mind: what is happening with U.S. immigration right now?

Host Ed Skornia is joined by two of the country's leading healthcare immigration attorneys, Chris Musillo and Mike Hammond, to break down the August 2026 Visa Bulletin, embassy delays, visa bans, public charge updates, and much more. Whether you're just starting your immigration journey or deep in the process, this episode gives you the clarity and confidence to keep moving forward.

• The August 2026 Visa Bulletin showed minimal movement. The EB-3 "All Chargeability Areas" category advanced by one month (to September 1, 2023). The Philippines remained unchanged at August 1, 2023. India EB-3 held at January 2014.
• Expect slow movement in September, but watch October closely. The new U.S. fiscal year begins October 1, and the October Visa Bulletin typically brings the largest forward movement of the year.
• Embassy delays are a major issue. Staffing shortages and lengthier security vetting are slowing interview scheduling worldwide, particularly in parts of Sub-Saharan Africa.
• A 221(g) notice is not the end. If your delay is related to a visa ban rather than missing documents, your case is generally held, not closed.
• Country of birth vs. citizenship matters differently depending on whether you're looking at Visa Bulletin priority dates or visa ban restrictions. Cross-chargeability through a spouse can be a significant advantage.
• Adding a spouse or children to your case is common and manageable as long as you act before your immigrant visa is issued.
• The proposed $100,000 bond requirement is unlikely to affect nurses sponsored by AMN Healthcare International based on current analysis.
• If your sponsor withdraws, hope is not lost. An approved I-140 gives you the ability to recapture your priority date with a new employer.
• Stay focused on the long-term goal. Delays are real, but healthcare professionals remain highly valued and the pathway to the U.S. is still achievable.

04:50 – Welcome and Introduction
Host Ed Skornia opens the show, introduces the episode's focus on immigration anxiety and updates, and welcomes immigration attorneys Chris Musillo and Mike Hammond.

05:55 – August 2026 Visa Bulletin Overview
Chris Musillo breaks down the key numbers from the latest Visa Bulletin. EB-3 All Chargeability Areas moved forward by one month. The Philippines stayed flat. India EB-3 remained unchanged. Most other categories saw little to no movement.

07:24 – What to Expect in the Months Ahead
Ed raises the question that nurses ask most: "When am I going to get to America?" Mike Hammond explains the U.S. government's fiscal year structure, the "use it or lose it" visa system, and why October is the most important bulletin of the year. He also addresses how visa bans and pauses may create spillover numbers that benefit employment-based categories.

10:46 – Embassy Delays: What's Causing Them?
Chris explains why so many applicants are waiting an unusually long time between becoming documentarily qualified and receiving an interview appointment. Key factors include staffing shortages at U.S. consulates and more rigorous background vetting. Advocacy efforts across the healthcare industry are ongoing, though change has been slow.

16:16 – Understanding Country Caps
Mike clarifies why certain countries—India, China, Mexico, and the Philippines—appear separately on the Visa Bulletin. He explains per-country allocation limits and why some nationalities face wait times measured in years while others face waits measured in decades.

19:22 – Visa Bans, Public Charge Restrictions, and 221(g) Notices
Chris addresses why some applicants from countries affected by presidential proclamations are still being called to embassy interviews. He explains how a 221(g) notice works, when a case is at risk of being closed, and when it simply remains on hold pending policy changes.

22:20 – Public Charge Policy Changes
Mike discusses recent changes to public charge rules, including the removal of Biden-era policies and what a potential "totality of the circumstances" approach could mean for nurses. He reassures that healthcare professionals are unlikely to be significantly impacted given their earning levels, though additional documentation requirements may arise.

26:35 – Country of Birth vs. Citizenship and Cross-Chargeability
Chris untangles a common source of confusion: how your country of birth affects your Visa Bulletin priority date versus how your citizenship affects visa ban restrictions. He explains the cross-chargeability rule and how a spouse's country of birth can dramatically reduce waiting times in certain situations.

30:22 – Audience Q&A: Name Changes, Marriage, and Adding Family Members
Ed reads a live question from a nurse who married, changed her name, and had children after filing her original petition. Mike explains how and when to add family members, why name changes are straightforward, and why immigration authorities handle these situations routinely. Chris emphasizes: notify your immigration team as soon as life changes happen.

35:28 – Children Aging Out: The Child Status Protection Act
Chris addresses a question from the chat about children approaching age 21 during a long immigration process. He explains the general rule (over 21 = ineligible as a derivative beneficiary), the important exception under the Child Status Protection Act (CSPA), and how I-140 processing time can be subtracted from a child's age for eligibility purposes. Key message: tell your attorney early.

38:02 – Visiting the U.S. on a Visitor Visa During the EB-3 Process
Mike advises that visiting on a B-1/B-2 visa is acceptable as long as you have a genuine reason for your trip and comply with all visa terms. He strongly cautions against entering with the intent to adjust status, noting this can raise serious fraud or misrepresentation concerns under the current administration.

42:45 – How to Apply with AMN Healthcare International
Ed takes a short break from the Q&A to explain how nurses can apply at amnhealthcare.com/international, what to include in your CV, and why candidates with an approved I-140 and established priority date often receive priority consideration.

44:05 – What Else Is the Industry Talking About?
Chris addresses the widely reported $100,000 bond proposal for immigrant visa applicants. He explains why, based on current analysis, this is unlikely to affect nurses with a U.S. job offer at competitive salaries. The panel encourages viewers to stay informed but not to panic.

48:49 – Words of Encouragement
Mike draws a powerful analogy between the immigration journey and earning a university degree—years of effort, moments of doubt, but a finish line that is absolutely worth reaching. He reminds viewers that healthcare professionals are still highly valued and that the vast majority of committed, qualified nurses ultimately succeed.

53:40 – When Your Sponsor Withdraws: What Happens Next?
Chris and Ed address a painful but real scenario: your sponsoring employer pulls back. Chris explains how an approved I-140 enables priority date recapture with a new employer, and why the nursing shortage means your skills remain in strong demand. He also outlines AMN Healthcare International's two pathways—Connetics (direct hire) and O'Grady Peyton International (staffing).

1:01:05 – Emerging Topics: F-1 Regulations and Retrogression
Mike flags significant new F-1 regulatory changes that could affect U.S.-educated international nurses, particularly those who came to the U.S. as students. He also notes that retrogression remains an ongoing conversation, with the October Visa Bulletin just weeks away.

1:03:01 – Closing Remarks and Upcoming Shows
Ed thanks Chris and Mike, recaps the core message of the episode—stay focused on your goal, trust the process, and work with experienced partners—and previews upcoming AMN programs including a July 31 session on protecting your priority date and August immigration academy sessions.

In this episode of Nursing in America podcast, brought to you by AMN Healthcare International, we discuss one of the most common clinical settings you'll encounter in the U.S. healthcare system: Medical-Surgical nursing.

Whether you trained in the Philippines, the UK, or anywhere else in the world, med-surg in the U.S. comes with its own set of expectations, responsibilities, and challenges. Two experienced professionals join us to share what it's really like working in the U.S. and the best ways to transition.

Mark J. is a clinical manager at AMN Healthcare International who works directly with international nurses as they transition into U.S. clinical practice. With hands-on experience supporting nurses from diverse backgrounds, Mark is a trusted advocate for international healthcare professionals navigating the differences in medical-surgical nursing.

Carl D. is an internationally trained nurse with a career that spans three countries. He earned his nursing degree in the Philippines, worked as a clinical instructor and then as an RN at Saint Luke's Medical Center in the Coronary Care Unit. He went on to spend 15 years in the UK, working in general surgery, vascular surgery, and as one of the founding nurses of a dedicated infectious disease unit at Royal Sussex County Hospital. Since July 2021, Carl has been working as a med-surg nurse at Mercy South in St. Louis, Missouri. His journey from Manila to Brighton to Missouri makes him the perfect guide for nurses stepping into U.S. healthcare for the first time.

This episode is a candid, practical conversation about what it means to practice med-surg nursing in the United States as an internationally trained nurse. From the structure of nursing education across different countries to the realities of EMR systems, patient ratios, and clinical expectations, Mark and Carl cover the terrain in full detail.

Carl brings firsthand perspective on how nursing training in the Philippines compares to the U.K. and the U.S., while Mark breaks down what facilities and support teams expect from nurses during and after orientation. Together, they address the clinical, cultural, and professional skills you'll need to lead confidently in a U.S. med-surg unit.

In this episode, Deirdre is joined by immigration attorneys Mike Hammond and Maria Schneider, both based in Cincinnati, Ohio, to unpack the July 2026 Visa Bulletin. The Rest of World (ROW) category moved forward by two months while the Philippines EB-3 category remained unchanged, prompting important discussion about what signals to watch going forward.

The panel explains the two layers of travel bans currently in effect: the security-related ban covering 39 countries and the public charge pause affecting 75 countries. They explain how the finalization of new public charge regulations could be the single biggest turning point for ROW movement for the rest of the fiscal year.

The conversation also covers important practical topics: I-140 timelines, what happens when an I-140 is denied, adjustment of status changes under a new USCIS memo, the $100,000 H-1B fee and its legal challenges, embassy transfers for nurses in the Middle East, F-1 to EB-3 pathways, and options for dual citizens from banned countries. The episode wraps with predictions for the August Visa Bulletin.

Mike Hammond is an immigration attorney based in Cincinnati, Ohio, with extensive experience in employment-based immigration law. He is a frequent expert contributor to the Nursing in America podcast, known for breaking down complex immigration topics with clarity and candor.

Maria Schneider is a law partner and immigration attorney also based in Cincinnati, Ohio. She brings deep expertise in green card processing, adjustment of status, and employment-based visa categories. Maria joins the show as a guest panelist and is a trusted voice in the international healthcare immigration space.

This episode focuses on one of the most critical milestones for international nurses pursuing their dream of working in the United States: passing the IELTS exam.

The International English Language Testing System (IELTS) is a required step for foreign-trained nurses seeking licensure in the U.S. But knowing it's required and knowing how to pass it are two very different things. In this episode, we hear directly from nurses who've been through the process talk about the setbacks, the breakthroughs, and the strategies that make a difference.

Scott — IELTS Instructor and Managing Director of Swoosh English, a dedicated preparation academy helping healthcare professionals and other candidates achieve the band scores they need to work abroad.

Lauren Del Mundo — A registered nurse from the Philippines who passed the IELTS on her second attempt. 

Philippe Lorenzo Austria — A registered nurse who passed the IELTS on his very first attempt after just one to two months of focused preparation, immediately following his NCLEX success.

Stan — Founder of Hurricane International, an online IELTS support community that has grown to over 7,000 members in under a year.

• Know the Scoring System: IELTS uses a band score from 0 to 9. Most nurses need to earn between 6.5 and 7.5 in each skill — speaking, writing, reading, and listening — and overall.
• Writing is the Hardest Section: It has some of the lowest passing rates of any IELTS component. Don't neglect it. Understanding the format is the first step to improving your score.
• Consistency Beats Cramming: Multiple guests credit daily routines — sometimes twice-a-day sessions — for their success. 
• Community Matters: Online groups like Hurricane International provide speaking practice, accountability, and moral support that can make a real difference.
• Emotional Control is a Skill: One guest made the point that IELTS tests more than English because it tests your maturity and ability to stay focused under pressure.
• Don't Go It Alone: Structured programs like Swoosh English offer study planners, feedback on writing, and guided preparations.

1. 00:00:02 — Opening: A nurse's moment of joy upon receiving her IELTS results
2. 00:00:11 — Introduction: What is IELTS and why it matters for international nurses
3. 00:00:50 — What IELTS Actually Measures: Scott from Swoosh English explains the exam structure and band score requirements

This month's immigration show has a lot to unpack. The June 2026 Visa Bulletin has been released, and while movement was limited, our expert panel breaks down exactly what that means for you and what to expect for the rest of the year.

Host Deirdre O'Regan, Senior Director of Recruitment at AMN Healthcare International, is joined by two familiar faces: immigration attorneys Mike Hammond and Chris Masiello, both based in Cincinnati, Ohio. Together, they tackle the most pressing questions from international healthcare professionals navigating the U.S. immigration process.

Episode Summary

This episode discusses the June 2026 Visa Bulletin. There was no movement seen across employment-based categories relevant to healthcare workers. Mike and Chris explain why this wasn't a surprise and why retrogression at the end of a fiscal year can actually signal something positive. The panel also covers the ongoing impact of the public charge rule, the visa ban, H-1b updates, pending legislation like JARA, and a wide range of audience questions on topics including aging out, embassy transfers, follow-to-join, and more.

Key Takeaways

• No Movement in the June Visa Bulletin: This was largely expected. The U.S. government overshot visa usage earlier in the fiscal year, and a slowdown through June–September is the natural result.
• Philippines EB-3 Approaching Quota: The bulletin notes the Philippines is close to exhausting its annual allotment. Retrogression or unavailability is likely for the remainder of fiscal year 2026. But, this signals that visas are being used efficiently, not wasted.
• Public Charge Rule vs. the Visa Ban: These are two separate policies. The visa ban affects approximately 35–40 countries. The public charge rule paused immigrant visa processing from around 70 countries. Understanding the difference is critical for knowing where your case stands.
• Paused Countries — Attend Your Interview: For those from paused (not banned) countries, the recommendation is to attend your embassy interview. Cases receive 221(g) holds, but attending is still encouraged.
• Banned Countries — Limited Options for Now: Unfortunately, the ban is expected to continue, potentially for the duration of the current administration. Attending an interview from a banned country is unlikely to yield results at this time.
• H-1b Update: Since September 2025, a presidential proclamation has effectively made the H-1b unavailable for overseas workers unless an employer pays an additional $100,000 fee, which very few have done. A court appeal decision is expected within the next six weeks and could change this.
• JARA Legislation: Still being actively discussed in Congress but passing immigration legislation — especially healthcare immigration — is extremely difficult. No imminent breakthrough is expected, though progress can sometimes happen quickly once it starts moving.
• EB-3 Remains the Primary Pathway: Approximately 80–90% of international nurses come to the U.S. via the EB-3 green card. Processing for an I-140 is currently running close to two years under regular processing.
• Premium Processing Caution: Premium processing does not move your place in the priority queue and is not recommended unless you are recapturing a priority date.
• Child Status Protection Act (CSPA): If you have a child approaching age 21, the time your I-140 is pending can be added to their age before they "age out." Do not premium process your I-140 if protecting a child's eligibility is a concern — doing so could actually hurt you.
• English Exam is Just as Important as NCLEX: AMN Healthcare International urges candidates to prioritize their English language exam preparation now, during this period of retrogression, so they are fully ready when the visa bulletin moves again.

NCLEX is more than an exam. For nurses around the world, it represents years of education, sacrifice, and hope. It is the gateway to working in the United States, and passing it requires the right strategy, the right mindset, and the right support system.

In this episode of Nursing in America, we bring together a panel of NCLEX educators, review program leaders, and international nurses who have lived this experience firsthand. Their insights cut through the noise and give you a clear, honest picture of what it takes to pass.

• Shelley Luhning — Founder of NCLEX Education in Canada, offering online review programs for nurses worldwide
• Paul Biluan — RN and founder of the Aspire RN NCLEX Review Course
• Emil Gomez — NCLEX educator focused on helping nurses develop clinical judgment skills
• Jay Padong — Co-founder of IPASS and lead NCLEX educator in Texas
• Rachelle Olivar — President of IPASS, an agency offering structured NCLEX review programs
• Holly Musselwhite— US nurse educator for AMN Healthcare International
• Cornelia — International nurse now working in California
• Nathaniel — International nurse based in Ireland who recently passed the NCLEX

The episode opens with a powerful reminder: NCLEX is not just a licensing requirement — it is the defining milestone that unlocks your American dream. Nurses from around the world share what the exam means to them emotionally and professionally. As the host puts it, "NCLEX is not just an exam, it's emotional. It represents years of education, sacrifice, and hope."

Shelley breaks down one of the most important administrative steps in the NCLEX process, 

Paul and Holly explain that NCLEX is an entry-level examination. It is designed to test your readiness to practice safely as a registered nurse. Holly highlights a critical shift in the exam's purpose:

• The focus has moved away from memorization toward clinical judgment
• Nurses must now demonstrate the ability to apply knowledge in real patient scenarios
• Orientations in US hospitals are not built to teach this transition, which is exactly why NCLEX assesses it before you arrive

Emil and Jay provide an in-depth look at the Next Generation NCLEX format:

• The exam uses the six-point Clinical Judgment Measurement Model[CD4], covering everything from recognizing cues to evaluating outcomes
• Each exam session includes three to five case studies, with three being scored
• Strong foundational knowledge of nursing concepts is essential

Emil outlines a two-phase study strategy that separates successful candidates from those who struggle:

Phase 1 — During the Eligibility Period (6–8 months):

• Open textbooks, attend review classes,watch our AMN Academy Next-Gen NCLEX prep videos, [LD5]and listen to podcasts
• Build a strong foundation of core nursing concepts
• Do not try to memorize specific answers because the format changes constantly

Phase 2 — After Receiving Your ATT:

• Shift focus to test-taking skills
• Practice question banks daily until your exam date
• Avoid locking yourself into a specific exam date until you have confirmed availability at your testing center

Rachelle speaks candidly about her own experience: she did not pass on her first attempt because she was not fully prepared. Her advice is not to underestimate NCLEX. The benefits of enrolling in a structured review program include:

• Step-by-step guidance tailored to your learning style
• AMN Healthcare International gives our international nurses access to educators who know exactly how to prepare you

Fear and misinformation can derail even the most prepared nurse. The panel addresses the most common myths head-on

Cornelia and Nathaniel close the episode with practical, personal advice:

• Cornelia: Her advice: "You really just have to focus and make time for your review."
• Nathaniel: Recommends taking the day before your exam to fully rest because you have already done the work. And during the exam itself, stay calm and trust what you have learned.

• AMN Healthcare International: Start your journey to success in the U.S. today.

In this episode, we break down the May Visa Bulletin 2026 for EB-3 consular green card applicants, including priority date movement, visa backlog, and what the latest updates mean for your U.S. immigration timeline.

We also dive into the latest immigration updates like travel bans vs. pause lists for various countries and how they impact healthcare workers, especially those on the EB-3 visa for nurses. Plus, we cover how to navigate real challenges—like rescinded job offers, using dual passports, and how the Child Status Protection Act (CSPA) can protect your family.

Understanding how the Visa Bulletin affects international nurses and your case, you’ll be better prepared, more confident, and ready to keep moving forward.

Key Takeaways:

The Reality of the Visa Bulletin: While the May visa bulletin showed no forward movement, it is still important to get your place in line and start the process. Demand is high, but the system is working. Stay optimistic and productive while you wait. Your timeline could change depending on the visa bulletin’s monthly movement. 

Travel Bans vs. Pause Lists: The U.S. operates with highly specific rules for different regions. A travel ban halts interviews and processing for certain countries, while a pause list means embassies are still scheduling interviews, though they may request additional documents. Knowing where your country stands gives you greater control of your expectations.

Driving Your Case Forward with Dual Nationality: If you hold passports from multiple countries, you have options. Dual nationals can often proceed under an alternate nationality to avoid delays associated with a specific country's pause or ban.

Protecting Your Family with CSPA: Aging out is a common fear, but the Child Status Protection Act exists to freeze a dependent's age during government processing delays. Every case is unique, so consult an expert to ensure your family's future remains protected.

Overcoming Rescinded Job Offers: Do not let a change in employment derail your dreams. If your job offer is rescinded, a new employer must file a new I-140, but you can often recapture your original priority date if your first I-140 was approved for over 180 days. You are capable and equipped to pivot and succeed.

Strategic Financial and Processing Choices: Understand when to use premium processing. While paying to expedite is not recommended for banned countries, it can be an attractive option for those on a pause list who are close to becoming current.

Welcome to another episode of the Nursing in America podcast. In this episode, we tackle one of the biggest adjustments for international nurses arriving in the U.S.: transportation.

The United States is very large, and unlike many other countries, public transportation isn't always readily available outside of major metropolitan hubs. For many new arrivals, independence means getting behind the wheel. Our expert panel—Nicole Dean from Advancial, James Krulder from International Auto Source, and Nurse Juan, a YouTube content creator and international nurse, joined us to help break down everything you need to know about getting from point A to point B in your new home.

In this episode, we explore why personal transportation is often a necessity rather than a luxury in the U.S. Our guests share real-world experiences about the limitations of public transit in states like Kentucky and Texas compared to hubs like New York City.

We discuss how to obtain a driver's license, how requirements vary from state to state, and why having an International Driver's License before you travel can smooth the process. Our experts also provide financial guidance on securing car loans and auto insurance, helping you avoid common pitfalls and high costs associated with being a new resident without a U.S. driving history.

• The Reality of Public Transit: While cities like New York have robust subway systems, most of the U.S., especially suburban areas where many hospitals are located, relies heavily on cars.
• Driving Skills are Essential: Even if you have never driven a car before, taking driving lessons upon arrival is highly recommended to learn local rules and gain confidence.
• State-by-State Variations: The U.S. operates like "50 different countries" when it comes to DMV rules. Requirements for licenses and documentation differ by state and county.
• The International Driver's License: Obtaining this document in your home country before you leave can help speed up the licensing and loan approval process.
• Financial Preparation: Understand how to secure a fair auto loan and find affordable insurance. Without a U.S. driver's license, insurance premiums can be higher.

• 00:00:13 – Introduction to the episode and guests
• 00:01:51 – The challenge of limited public transportation in the U.S.
• 00:03:46 – Comparing city transit vs. suburban driving needs
• 00:06:09 – Advice for nurses with no prior driving experience
• 00:07:49 – Understanding driver's license requirements by state
• 00:08:39 – How your license impacts auto loans and financing
• 00:11:19 – Navigating car insurance costs and saving money
