NNAS verifies and processes records for internationally educated applicants in participating Canadian jurisdictions. Its expedited RN/LPN pathway and registered psychiatric nurse pathway have different processes. Its published FAQs state that English test scores go directly to regulators, not NNAS. The NNAS report is not an approval or denial of licensure.

Recommended next steps

  1. Confirm your desired regulator accepts the specific NNAS pathway.
  2. Check NNAS eligibility and the current applicant handbook.
  3. Create your own account; identify which records must come from third parties.
  4. Track document receipt and respond to information requests.
  5. When the report is issued, complete the chosen regulator’s application and additional requirements.
