But you should not be putting your life on hold, you should be pro-active in your career and not just waiting.

Even if it moves a little, the issue now is that there are so many more applicants than there are visas available per year that most will be waiting for years and years. It is not me being mean or anything else but the fact that there are less than 10,000 visas per year for those from your country and that includes spouses and children, so the actual chances of getting a visa are going down on a daily basis.

And expect the requirements to get stricter.

Yes Susan,I am in agreement with you ,we really need to get pro-active and keep abreast with what,s going on in our field until such time when retrogression is end.Some day to come it must end.
If nursing is really what we want to be doing ,we must focus.Hold own to our dreams continue to serve our country and our people.There are lots of on-line courses we can engage in ,we can even keep the skills current by seeking employment in neighbouring countries if employment is difficult in your country.
