The immigration process, I am not sure of. But you will have to pass boards in whatever state you take a job in 
At one time our local hospital provided housing to Philippine Nurses…who worked for about half the cost of U.S. nurses, during our last major shortage.

Take the CGFNS exam and English proficiency exam BEFORE coming to the United States. If you pass you’ll be eligible for a nursing license here without going back to school.
