How to apply online for CGFNS CES Report in any state
Welcome to Nurse.Nonoy.Net! You can also subscribe to my feeds, get Email updates or socialize with me thru Facebook, Facebook Group and Twitter!
The CGFNS International Credentials Evaluation Service (CES) analyzes the 
credentials of multiple types and levels of health care professionals who are educated outside of the United States and who wish to pursue licensure (by NCLEX) or academic admission in the United States.
There are two methods of CES Application, online and using downloadable paper forms. The online CES Application is cheaper, for CGFNS charges extra $75 for any paper application of their services. Also, please take note that there are two types of CES report: Full and Healthcare Profession and Science Report. I suggest that you contact your state board of nursing (or read instructions) and ask what type report they require.
If you have any inquiries on how to do your CES Application for any state, or have an agency process it for you, Go to the link:

Sir noy, clarification lang po kung tama lahat ng naiisip ko at ilang questions about gaining a ces report. I’m planning to apply to vermont.
1. Apply for CGFNS-CES report online
– send the filled up online application (via e-mail/internet)
– send the payment (paano po pwedi magbayad kung walang credit card? pwedi po ba na yung parents ko na nasa states ang magbayad nun? kung ako naman po ang magbabayad na nandito sa PHL paano ko po mabibigay sa kanila?)
– send the high school tor (pati po ba diploma?)
– send the college tor (pati po ba rle at diploma?)
– send the request for validation of registration/license (san ko pa makukuha tong form na to and ibibigay ko po ba sa prc at sila magse-send via snail mail?)
2. to summarize, paano ko po i-sesend yung mga hard copy na xerox na requirement? via snail mail po ba lahat? and sino po magsesend ng mga yun, ako po ba, yung school or yung prc?
xenxa na po at medyo magulo, pa-help po. thanks a lot sir.
about 1 year ago
No need to send the filled up application. Let them login to your account and pay. Just send the HS diploma. If you read my post above, there forms to be printed and bring to school and PRC.
about 1 year ago
Ah, edi yung request for academic records ise-send ng school, then yung request for validation of registration, prc naman ang magsesend, so hiwalay sila darating ng cgfns office tama po ba?
Yung HS diploma at yung payment naman ako magsesend, tama po ba?
Kung ibalik naman ng school yung request for academic records with the tor at rle sa akin, pweding ako na magpadala sa cgfns and then isasabay ko sa HS diploma ko at payment? tama po ba sir?thanks
about 1 year ago
Kung ibabalik sayo ng school, wag mo isabay. you must mail it separately
about 1 year ago
ah so last nalang po sir:
1.request for validation of registration – sent by prc
2.request for academic records with tor & rle – sent by school or me
3.hs diploma – sent by me separately with request for academic records & payment
4.payment – sent by me separately (money order) from hs diploma
tama po ba? thanks sir noy, you’re a big help, gbu
about 1 year ago
No, kasama ang HS diploma and payment, tapos separate dapat sa academic request and TOR

Sir Noy,
I just passed the july 2010 local board and i have already registered for my RN license last september 22, 2010 at the PRC cebu branch. i have a problem sir Noy because the PRC wont validate my license unless they can already release the plastic license so i can’t apply for my eligibility to take NCLEX for Vermont and i need to take the NCLEX as soon as possible.I dont know how many months will it take before they release my license. Dont they have my license number already on their computer? I guess they only need my license number to fill up the CES form. Why is the PRC requiring me to wait until the license will be released when they were able to do it for other nurses same situation as me during the previous months. Is there a new protocol? Pls help me on this Sir coz i really need to take NCLEX as soon as possible. How should i persuade them to fill up my CES form without me having to wait for my plastic license.
about 1 year ago
they really require you to have that license card.

Hi Sir Noy, May tanong lang. Last jan. 2009 nagtake na ako ng NCLEX sa California but I failed then since ang Ca. humingi ng SSN# even renewal so I decided mag-apply ng ibang state. So pagmag-apply ng ibang state ito ba ay renewal or new application na? Then ask u recommendation if what state ang mas madali na magapply? Talaga bang we need to pass on CES sa ating mga application? Thank you po.

Hi! I posted this question earlier in the post of how to apply for NCLEX in VT with CES. Sorry for the repetitive post.
Anyway is the photocopy of HS Diploma for CES needs to be stamped a certified true copy of my HS alma mater before I send it? Thanks!
about 1 year ago
Better if you can have it stamped.
about 1 year ago
Thanks for the reply. I already had my photocopy certified.
Anyway I applied for CES HP&S online and already sent my transcripts to CGFNS. I also had my license verified at PRC the moment after I got my plastic license. I am about to mail my HS diploma separately.
What bugs me is that when I check my order status at my CGFNS account, it seems that PRC hasn’t sent yet the required papers. I validated my license nuon pang October 27 so I’m wondering. Can it be because I just passed the July 2010 NLE that’s why CGFNS didn’t receive my lic. validation yet?
about 1 year ago
maybe PRC hasnt sent it yet.
about 1 year ago
Hmm paano ko kaya macoconfirm kung nasend na ng PRC yung documents that CGFNS needs from me?

You can check it on your online status

sir Noy, The status of my liscence validation in Cgfns was received but not accepted, there was a note that Prc did not put an expiration date or indicated that it is a lifetime practice. As per Cgfns, they have sent a letter to PRC reg this matter. Im out of the country right now and Im thinkin if PRC would respond to cgfns or do I really need to follow it up at PRC and ask to fill out another liscence validation form?
about 1 year ago
Yes you can follow it up with them

I made mistakes online for the CES application and since you said from your previous comments that you can abandon it..would it be safe if firstly,I would cancel my order and make another account and redo everything….thank you.
about 1 year ago
and had the “order number” already,only I did not pay yet.
someone commented from other website regarding this kind of problem…saying ” Any mistake made online can only be changed by writing to them “.
please help,just confused.
about 1 year ago
Yes you can do that too, but it would take some time. or you can call them. or you can abandon the acct and make a new one.
about 1 year ago
have been calling them,no one would answer but just the voice machine.
would choose abandoning the account and make a new one…and what I understood on this–by abandoning the account is not canceling the order?

Sir I read the handbook for the CGFNS they said something about sending also my SAT results or the exam result of the certain exam you take in high school to see your competence but during my time that exam was already pulled out. Does that mean i only have to send my high school diploma and TOR? Thank you again po.

for what service? CES? wala naman ganun requirement.
about 1 year ago
Sir, i just need to ask, how long it usually takes for the credentials evaluation to be completed? It stated in the application form that it takes “several weeks”, do you know exactly how many weeks?
about 1 year ago
It depends on the number of applicants. sometimes it’s done in a month, other times longer.
about 1 year ago
Thank you. Another quick question… Between CGFNS-CP and CES what would you recommend that I take?
(i’m worried that if the report says I have to take the CP it would burden my mom financially, esp. since CES alone costs $385.)

You dont have to take CP, just the CES for Vermont.

I plan on applying at Vermont by the way. So I’m trying to weigh the pros and cons of taking the CP vs CES.,.,

Sir Noy, Can i send a photocopy of my HS diploma which was Certified True Copy by the printshop only. Our School can’t do so because they require me to pass it to DFA first for the Red Ribbon and the DepEd regional will be the ones to certify true copy my photocopied HS Diploma which is a very long process for me considering that i am far from the Cebu City and more expenses for travel. So is it Ok if the Printshop will be the ones to put the Certified True Copy or would it be better for me to send to CGFNS my Original Diploma??? PLEASE HELP ME ON THIS SIR!

All they say is clear copy of diploma. but if you could send the orig copy, then better.

@chantei
wala ng CES healthcare profession and science course by course report ngayon. Professional report and academic report na yata. I think professional report will do in replacement to the ones your looking for and according to sir noy also. because academic report on the other hand is for those who are seeking for higher education in US.

Nag-aappear ung Phil. license ko at ung 3 schools ko ksi 2nd courser ako. di ko alam kung preho kong pipiliin ung 2 college schools or ung nursing school lang. tnx
If you are unsure which credentials you need evaluated, ask the intended recipient of the report (i.e. state board of nursing, university, or employer) about the organization’s requirements.
The basic fee for the Credentials Evaluation Service includes:
* Evaluation of transcripts from two (2) professional schools
* Evaluation of two (2) registrations/licenses not issued in the US
Reporting on additional schools or registrations/licenses incurs additional fees per credential.
The list below summarizes the credentials information you entered. Place a check mark in the check box next to each item you wish included in the report then click “Next” to continue. Check all the items unless you want to exclude any from the report.

Hi Sir Noy, I am a registered nurse from Philippines and I am applying for a CGFNS CES report for me to complete my NCLEX application. Wayback 2006, I submitted all my credentials (HS Diploma, College TOR, License Verification from PRC…etc.) needed for me to take the CGFNS Exam but unfortunately failed the exam. I am now applying to take the NCLEX Exam since CGFNS Certification is no longer needed here in the state of New Jersey.
My problem is when I apply for a CES report they still asking me for a License Verification Form from PRC which i already submitted wayback 2006. Does anyone encounter this kind of problem before? Is there an expiration with regards to License Verification? My PRC License is current. Thank you!
about 3 weeks ago
Make a payment and then see if theyll still require it.
about 2 weeks ago
Hi Sir Nonoy, Thank You for the reply. I already paid for the CES application and after a day they updated that they already received my PRC verification form. My status application for the report right now is waiting to be reviewed. i hope that it will not have a problem. Many Thanks!
