Manila Bulletin By PHOEBE JEN INDINO January 10, 2010 CEBU CITY – An official from the Philippine Nurses Association of America (PNAA) stated that retrogression continues to be the reason why no visas for competent nurses applying for work in the US are available, thus resulting to delay in their employment overseas.

Under said visa retrogression, as of December, 2009 visa applications from the Philippines shall be processed only through to August, 2005.

Gabato also stressed that the processing of documents usually takes at least four years because qualified nurses will be considered immigrants, which is why they have the privilege of bringing their families abroad.

Marco Sto. Tomas, a member of the PRC’s board of nursing, said after a review of past tests, he added that the passing rate has been declining, now estimated at 40 percent, which indicated the urgent need for the academe to identify where the examinees are having difficulty.
