Is the job title of US pharmacsit intern eligible for TN visa application?

[wishtopass]

Hi:

-I am a canadian citizen looking for a pharmacist intern job. I have a canadian registered pharmacist licence and a bachelor pharmacy degree but no US pharmacist licence.

- In the future after i get the FPGEC, What if I get hired as a US phamacist intern with a job title of pharmacist intern ( doing pharmacist intern duties ), am I eligible for TN visa?
-Do I have to get hired as a pharmacist with a job title of pharmacist ( doing pharmacist duties ) before I am eligible for TN visa ?
-What if my employer wants to hire me to do pharmacist intern duties and I am given a job title of pharmacist, can I still apply for TN visa? However, what if I get challenged by the US border that I don't have a
registered US pharmacist licence, then how should I respond?



thanks if any advice from canadian pharmacists working in USA.



Wish to pass

As I know, in Michigan, if you are a Canadian registered pharmacist, you don't need to go through the internship. You can apply to the state pharmacy board and request to attend the Licensure Exam. Once you pass the NAPLEX and the law exam, you will be a Michigan registered pharmacist. Then, you can also transfer your pharmacist license to other states. Do some search yourself.

If you are not a graduate from a Canadian pharmacy school, make sure you have your university diploma evaluated (University of Toronto has the service... perhaps some changes...ask INS). It sounds rediculous even though you have the FPGEC on hand. But, that works. Good luck.
