Hello everyone! Have you all seen the AHPRA website lately? They recently posted the changes in International Criminal Check which I think will affect us once we finished our bridging program and resubmit our documents with AHPRA for registration.

Hi Jotdi,

My provider MCIE/ Wimmera have a program running on the 5th of June, if you are interested.

I have heard La Trobe have cancelled their June intake.....you may want to confirm that.

Good Luck :)

Do you know any schools in melbourne for iron program who offers intake this month?i would like to start right away once i receive my loe. The sooner the better. Most specially those providers who offers an early exit.

hello … you have IHNA in Melbourene

A visa processing agent. I just acquired their services because I was working overseas at that time thinking things will be easier when it comes to gathering of the requirements.I'll be using my mom's bank account as the "show money" while I use my own money for the rest of the expenses and will be borrowing some of hers too;). So If there is such thing as maturity of the account(the money has to stay intact for 2-3 months), then what's the use of showing that I have financial support when I can't even use that money? but yeah, I think this agent is just trying to push me to tie up with a financing company.

hi…. as for me after the visa was approved.. I withdraw it and used it as the payment of my tuition fee..

Hi! For those who got the referral to a bridging program, how did you refund your registration fee?

[purply20]

Thanks for responding to my query:)

marlyn10, can I know how did you apply for visa, via VFS or online through the Immiaccount? How long was the processing time? Thanks again!:)

My application was reviewed Jan 8, but I am yet to receive my LOE. Anyone here who has the same circumstance? I'm very anxious about what's causing the hold up.
