Is there absolutely no way that I could start training over there without any nursing experience here?

There is a lady getting her visa through nursing on the FL site I give you......if anyone can help you...I'm sure she can.....

I think you have to have training in England.....but I'm sure she could tell you all the facts a lot better then I could..........

You could train at a private college. I know the Florida Hopsital has a course. But it isnt cheap. The public college courses are limited access in the Orlando area. That means it is difficult to a visa holder to get a place as they reserve them for citizens and green card holders. You could try elsewhere in the US.

Hi Esprit
In a previous post you mentioned that a rethink of getting an L1 Visa rather than an E2 Visa due to the restrictions - if possible could you help me with any further views on this and what the main differences are, my eldest daughter is 17 at the moment and intends to go to college.
Thanks
Helen

You can get a green card from L1 which means your kids get a green card and are entitled to stay after 21. On a green card, you can work, you can retire, you have all the rights of a citizen except voting.
You cant get a green card on E2. No chance of permanent residency. Your visa is tied to a business and you are there as long as you keep trading with renewal every 2-5 years.. Your kids right to remain ceases at 21 and they are out on their own trying to get a HiB if a graduate. This route should be OK, but they are cuttig back the number of HIBs every year. This year, there are a third the number of last year With no dgeree, well no future after 21 in the US unlesss they marry an American.

Its down to around 68.000 this year......58.000 next....I think its on its way out.....if the numbers get any lower.....then its going to be to much work trying to bring someone to the USA from another country.....
