Pick a visa There are basically NINE ways that you can get a visa to live and work in the US: (1) Marriage (or engagement in anticipation of marriage) to a US citizen. (2) You have skills that are in short supply in the US e.g. scientific or medical training. A degree is normally a must. Or you have superior specialist skills with at least 12 years experience. (H visas) (3) You have an Employer who is willing to transfer you - but even the employer has to make a good case for you - so you have to be a manager unless you fall under category (2) above.(L visas) (4) You may get a Green card in the diversity lottery (UK citizens, except N.Ireland, are not generally eligible unless you, your spouse or parents were born abroad or held a different citizenship. (5)You own or buy business (does not get you permanent resident status i.e. no green card)You must be a national of a qualifying Treaty countries. The business must have a minimum value of around $150k (more the better) bearing in mind you will need somewhere to live and with any startup business you will need at least 2 years living money as back up. So a figure of $350k would be a nearer minimum (E-2 visas) (6)You are an "investor" i.e. you have at least US $1m in assets to bring with you. half of that in a few areas. And your background will be investigated to the hilt. (EB-5 visas) (7)You have a close relative (mother, father, brother, sister and no further) who is an US citizen who would sponsor you, approx time this take 2-12 years? (8.The R1 visa is available to foreign members of religious denominations, having bona fide non-profit religious organizations in the U.S., for entering the U.S. to carry on the activities of a minister or religious worker as a profession, occupation or vocation (9)THE UNUSUAL You are in a position to claim refugee status/political asylum. or You get a member of Congress to sponsor a private bill with legislation that applies just to you. The S visa issued to persons who assist US law enforcement to investigate and prosecute crimes and terrorist activities such as money laundering and organized crime Recruitment agent will not take you seriously if you are not already in the US. Writing for jobs is really a waste of time; likewise US employers have no idea what foreign qualification are or mean (except Degrees) it may pay you to get your qualification translated into a US equivalent, there are Companies that do this (www.wes.org) .. But if you are getting a visa under (2) above then you need a job offer before you can get the visa. Your Employer will be your sponsor this will cost them upward of $5k. So you can see you have to be offering something really special to get considered They may also have to prove to the Dept of labor that there is no American who can do the job if the position is to be permanent ©

The UK visa is irrelevant & meaningless outside the UK. She needs to find out if there are any restrictions on her nationality entering the US & find out what she needs to do to apply for a visa to the US.
3 :
No but you have some excellent advice here, send it to your frriend. She needs to plan carefully, the UK student visa is not a round the world ticket.
4 :
she can, but the english student visa is neither going to help nor hinder. It's completely irrelevant. As there is a shortage for nurses it's going to be easier than for a number of other professions. http://www.usabal.com/permres/nurses.html

Assuming you are writing from outside the UK now: You need to register with the NHS (National Health Service) and the Nursing Council. This will cost money, but without it, you can't practice. If you are a RN within the UK, the only thing to do would be to apply for jobs and go to interviews - no different requirements from the rest of England.
2 :
You will need to apply for a work visa. See website below.
3 :
Jeanie the first thing you need is one of them uniforms with the big red cross on it
4 :
you need to contact a travel nurse agency, so you can get some travel/permanent position in london or look at healthcare reruiting agencies. also another reason you want to get with an agency is because of the travel pay .i don' t see how brits get by on such low salaries.anyway i am in ultrasound and i found an agency online that helps find positions and the pay is like twice what regular tech make in london. just searc under nurse recruitment on yahoo.co.uk or msn.co.uk
