    I was wondering if anyone knows a roundabout estimate for how much an RN, with a BSN degree makes in Costa Rica?

    A legal working person here working as nurse receives a salary of approx. $750 per month.
    You need to do some research in the requirements of living/working in Costa Rica.
    And of course, you would also need to sit your exams again and be fluent in Spanish.

    It’s higher than that but still only $950 as you’ll see from the 2009 salaries at:

    Listen to CostaRicaFinca and please find out what the legal requirements are to work here at all….

    The bottom line is that it’s about as “easy” for you to work here legally as it would be for a Costa Rican to get a visa (not easy) to fly to the USA and start working in your hometown doing your job.

    In other words it’s NOT at all easy…

    Good luck!
