What are the steps from applying to getting my Prometric test appointment?
NAVLE - Eligibility & Applying(1) Determine where to apply: directly through ICVA, through your licensing board, or through Canada’s National Examining Board (NEB).
(2) Submit your NAVLE application through that route and pay the required fee.
(3) Allow a few business days for ICVA to review and approve your eligibility.
(4) Receive your Scheduling and Admission Permit by email, typically at least four weeks after approval, and follow the instructions to create your MyNBME account.
(5) Schedule your appointment at a test center in your selected region using Prometric’s ProScheduler or the contact instructions in your permit.
(6) Save your Prometric confirmation number; ICVA cannot retrieve it for you.
(7) On test day, arrive at least 30 minutes early with your permit and a valid photo ID.
