i'm sorry...i am a little ignorant but i've heard stories in newspapers of people who are doctors in their native countries and then they move to a new country and they are taxi drivers or work the drive-thru.

If you have a professional license, it doesn't always meet the licensing requirements of a new country. The professional training that led to a license in Peru, for example, may not qualify you for such a license in California or other USA States..

That depends on which countries they get the doctor degree/license from. If they're from the 3rd world countries, and they come to the U.S., for example, most likely they will be required to pass some kinds of tests and requirements before they can practice. This process can be as long as it takes, or can be impossible to some people for whatever reasons (language could be 1 issue, or legal status could be another 1). Whereas, someone with the license from countries like the U.S. may not have that much trouble.
I know a lot of friends with a bachelor degree from Asia, coming over here, and have to start over again (another 4 years) to get their bachelor. While someone from here can go to Asia, i.e. Vietnam, showing their degree from the U.S. and can start from there.

i am not sure i understand your question!!! but if you are asking " do you have to start over???? " then, i can only sugest or tell you that that depends in each person or the situation the person find s him/herserlf in... but nonetless is a good question... got me thinking... a lot people give up everything they have sometimes to start a new life, either by choice or for a better living... just think... in some countries a doctor makes less or leaves worse that a cab driver in NY or LA... sometimes people move and take less enriching jobs to help their families... or for other reasons such as WPP...

It depends on the career path the individual is in. Also, the country of origin and the new country also affect the answer. For instance, most careers are not difficult to carry over from the US to Canada (or vice versa), but coming from India to US/Canada is different.

I know that for a fact. There are highly regarded Medical Doctors who become nurses simply just to work in the US and UK.

well, i dont know if it goes to that extreme but yeah, depending where they lived and moved to, it is like starting over, for example, my mom was a licensed nurse in Puerto Rico and her license is worthless in the US...the only place she could work at is at a VA Hospital (veterans affairs, i believe) she is actually in PR right now to renew her license, she stopped practicing b/c i was born...tee hee...and....i'm stupid...=)...when she renews it, she can work in the VA Hospital but then she will have to get her license done in the US...the only reason she went back to PR was b/c she was already a nurse b4, it's just to renew it...but yes to ur q, u basically might to start over if u move to another country...
hope i answered ur q...=)
