There is a "sticky" at the top of this thread which may contain much of the information you are seeking.

Someone who has experienced the process of applying to come here and work may post here and be able to answer your questions.

I'm sorry I cannot help you more since I was born here and have not had to go through the process.

I wish you all the best.

1-what is procedure should i follow to get rn registeration in australia...please in details? whereabouts do you want to work in australia like victoria, queensland, sydney etc. you need to be registered first in any state and you need to browse on the internet or the agency will assist you in processing your registration.

2-is it easy to find a job as rn in australia? you can apply directly to the hospital by browsing the internet or agency. there's a lot of jobs will come-up, of course it will depends on your experience/speciality. some states will provide accomodation and assist you with relocation.

3-if i'm going to apply for 457 visa ,is the anmc certificate on of the rquirements for this type of visa or only for pr? if i can remember it right only pr needs anmc. the agency/hospital you want to work with will assist you for subclass 457 visa without anmc certificate.

4- when can i apply for permenant residency if i have 457 visa? you can apply both really but with pr (its worth a fortune to tell you honestly!) it will takes probably 18mos or so....it depends! if you are applying from your home country. well, subclass 457 visa takes only 4-6 weeks. if you want an easy/cheapest option subclass 457, i would recommend. and you can apply while you are working in austalia within a year or so...........

5-how long it takes for visa processing? same answer on number 4 question...............it depends on you which path would you rather take (easy or the hardest)

hope i answered all your question right!let me know how you get on!:cheers:
