Question details
How can a F1 student after graduation apply for greencard at this time? Isn't there a retrogression problem at present? Are there any hospitals that are currently sponsoring foreign nurses? Secondly what other options are there for a recent nurse graduate (who is a foreigner) to get employment in the US?
ANSWER
An F-1 student could apply, but will not get the green card right away. I cannot provide a list of hospitals that we work with. That would be a breach of confidentiality in my view. Nurses typically use H-1B, H-1C, H-2B and TN visas.

I am a registered nurse and registered in Florida in 2007, did not complete the process due to retrogression, and now I am in the UK. I renewed my visa screen and IELTS in 2012, but nothing after that. Can I restart my process now?
