House Passes Bill Proposing New Temporary Visa Program for Nurses Posted Aug 19, 1998 The U.S. House of Representatives has proposed a Bill which would create a new "H1C" program for registered nurses in locations designated as shortage areas. Nurses must be either licensed in the country where they earned their education or must have completed their nursing studies in the U.S. They must have passed an appropriate examination or have a state registered nurse license. Those who qualify based on an examination must be eligible and qualified for state licensure. Should this new program be enacted into law, the Law Office of Sheela Murthy will provide additional information regarding eligibility for application and other details. © The Law Office of Sheela Murthy, P.C.
