Can tourist VISA 676 transfer to others while remaining in Australia?

Published

Does any one know could 676 transfer to other VISA like 457?

I'm going to undertake the pre-registration course prior registered in Nursing Board of Victoria. The education provider ETEA suggests apply for 676 or 456, the Immigration department said otherwise. The VISA condition on the website of Department of Immigration clearly said "no further stay". However, some friend says it could be wavied on special condition.

Any successful case? or failed case?

Thanks a lot!

Hi Ive already posted this answer on other threads. buut to make things easier here is the LINK: yes it can be done--once you are eligible for State RN Registration( just having eligibility will do).

Thread moved to the International Forum as it is specific to immigration/licensure issues.

Please refer to the little red banner at the top of the Aussie forum.

Thanks for your understanding on this.

hi.

ETEA was also one of the accredited facilities for me to undertake their pre registration program for overseas qualified nurses. are you a filipino? i am in the process of applying. i do hope i still have enough time to make it come feb 9 commencement date of ETEA. are you also aiming for feb 9? maybe you could help me by since you had a head start. regarding the visa part. may i pass my application without a visa yet? how does that go? what do i apply for? isnt there any assitance offered by ETEA?

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
