How to get an SSS number from overseas?

My friend from the UK is nurse and wish to migrate and continue his profession here. CA nursing board requires an SSS number before he is issued a license. How can avail one?

Answer:
You can't get a Social Security number unless you are a US citizen or a permanent resident.

It sounds like your friend does not understand how foreign nurses get hired in the United States. He needs to take and pass the CGFNS (Commission Governing Foreign Nursing Schools) examination first. The US embassy absolutely will not consider any visa application until this is accomplished.

He may also be required to take and pass the TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) examination. He might also be required to take and pass the NCLEX-RN (National Council Licensure Examination-Registered Nurse).

After that he needs to contact a recruiter of nurses or find an American employer willing to sponsor him. It's totally up to the American employer to get the work visa for him.
Have your friend go to the Canadian consult or embassy and get first hand information.
You mean an illegal one
