# VisaKey
> VisaKey by The Evaluation Company (TEC) is the Section 343 Health Care Worker certificate for internationally educated nurses seeking a U.S. occupational visa — the same federal certificate as TruMerit VisaScreen, IEE GlobalBridge, and Josef Silny Visa4Nurses. NACES® member since 1996. Typical processing: 10 business days after required documents are complete.

VisaKey is a product of The Evaluation Company (founded 1982). The legal requirement is the same across issuers; what differs is price, process, and brand name. A separate Nursing Course Analysis (NCA) is the same course-by-course product CGFNS calls a CES. VisaKey accepts completed CES / IEE / Josef Silny evaluations in place of an NCA; CGFNS does not accept a VisaKey NCA.

Self-pay prices (USD, one-time; confirmed at Stripe checkout): VisaKey Application $675; VisaKey + NCA bundle $1,050; standalone NCA $400. Employers and recruiters can sponsor applicants and pay by invoice.
