Kuwait MOH

World Philippines

Published

Hi,

I am new to this site and I found it very informative. This would be my first post. I would just like to know if anybody on this board wrote the Kuwait MOH exam last March 18 in PICC? I believe there were 3 agencies who facilitated the exam and interview. In my case I passed the exam and was interviewed by the Kuwait MOH delegates last March 24 at Diamond Hotel- Manila. The agency called me up informing me that I passed the interview and wait for further instructions for the next step. I would just like to hear how many of us are awaiting for possible deployment to Kuwait and any update as to your case will be greatly appreciated. Many Thanks.

is it true 2nd week of october pa mkkaalis nurses under virtus group?our visa wll expired on october 3.....

Oh...that's bad.

hi everyone, im new in this site. i just want to ask if dental nurse is a good job in kuwait. i have an offer from an agency and the salary is 250KD. is it worth it?

@missR - if you have more than 3tears exp then apply for ministry.. the salary that they are giving almost 3x compared to what private hospitals give.

@Piorf- thank you very much for your reply. But I have only least than 2 years experience, when I'm in Kuwait can I apply directly to the hospital or MOH after my contract? Because as of know I want it to be my stepping stone to be out of our country and to have better job opportunities abroad. Thanks!

@missR -

yes, you can but i recommend not to apply from there directly unless you have a WASTA or know someone who has a high position. another problem that you may encounter is that, some instittions might ask you to pay them a certain amount(which is usually big) so that they will give you your release papers. it would be easier to apply to agencies here in PH since most of these agencies are related to well-known agencies there in Kuwait.

- 8 to 9 people already got theit flight sched from ADM.. wew.. i might be travelling alone since im the last of the GE group. for those who are still waiting, visas will come soon so dont worry.

@Piorf- Thanks..I already sign my first contract and might get my visa after few months as what the agency have told me,,see you in Kuwait. I will grab this opportunity and bahala na what will happen to me after 2years I hope I can still work as well in the hospital after i have this experience as a dental nurse ;)

I am very dissapointed to what is happening now. after all the tentative dates of deployment from Aug. 15, sept 5. and sept 10 under VIRTUS GROUP of BEST ONE AGENCY didnt materialized. Now they were telling us to wait for the TICKET and confirmation until before 2nd week of OCTOBER considering our VISA will near expire on the 13th Oct... Hoping and Praying for it.

Godbless!

hi guys! any news regarding our departures? havent received any text messages from mom's way so ive been texting some of my friends. i was told that those lucky sc people who have been scheduled to leave this month will depart on the 19th and on the 25th. they were asked to bring at least 1 set of uniform with them.

my friend also said that upon arrival in kuwait, they will be given 100 kd for their expenses. i learned that the processing fee for the residence permit (or something like that) and the medical exam will be deducted from the 100 kd so they were advised to bring pocket money. dont know if this is the case for all companies but the applicants from mom's way who are already in kuwait said that males will have free food for 3 weeks only. after that i think they will buy their own food. this is not the case for the females though.

this is all for now folks...will share with you whatever updates i receive later.

@dinx: sorry i can't answer you pm. think i need 15 or so posts so i will have permission to send a private message. anyway, i still dont have my ticket. im still watiing just like everybody else. lets keep crossing our fingers and hope for the best :)

I am thinking that most of us, if not all should expect to be deployed before visa expires.

I've heard a lot of info/updates from co-applicants but nothing beats the case of having first hand info coming directly from my agency. I have no idea why my agency seems to be so silent when it comes to answering my inquiries.

Well, I guess there's no other thing to do but to wait for ku-WAIT!!!!

@dinx - right, to wait is all we can do. BTW, it wont be a problem, even if you have an expired visa if you're already in Kuwait(unfortunately, you'll never be able to travel to Kuwait once it expire here. the immigration section in airport will never let you). this is a problem of our agencies wherein they would have to pay a certain amount(2kd? i forgot) if we will stay in Kuwait with a cancelled visa. as ive told you guys before, processing time for a residence visa is around three months so you'll have to expect that we will stay in Kuwait for one month with a forfeited visa.

@zephie - you are also right. in my experience before, i brought 300$ worth of pocket money. during my first month, i was given 25kd allowance(which was eventually cut from my salary) during the first month.. i was lucky because i was able to work 2 days upon arrival. 25kd is enough for a month(i usually spent 40-50kd after receiving my regular salary). we will not be receiving our regular salary for around 3mos(that is why i brought 300$ and some instant noodles and can goods) so be sure to bring some pocket money with you.

just had my PDOS this afternoon, quite long but informative. we will be departing soon.. be patient.
