I guess it will depend on your answer to no. 39... What about no. 41, what is your answer to that? :)

Hi. for #39 my consultancy told me to write my past volunteer work. As for #40 i answered NO, then i wrote Staff Nurse.

I am a nurse-trainee at a Dialysis center right now. Im a bit confused

so you are not anymore connected to the hospital where you had your volunteer work while you are doing your dialysis training at the moment? if that is i case, i think, you tick other then provide details of your dialysis training, a certificate may suffice maybe. :)

I am not connected with the hospital anymore. so, I should tick OTHER?

thanks so much.

If I were on your part, I would tick OTHER and provide details with the said training. Dialysis nurse training will be an add'l points to your nursing profession which is in connection to the BP that you will be undertaking in Oz. Good Luck!

@laydee-mHi I'm new in here..how did you apply for a student visa? What are the requirements? Thank you

ajlynx16 · Aug 8, 2012

Yes, 575 visa. . .Sure, I'm glad to help you. . It's indicated also in their email that the processing time is between 6-8 weeks but I got mine in 14 working days . . .Some who have applied online got their visa in just 7-9 days .

hello there, I would like to ask, how many months were given with your visa? is it about 6months? or just enough to finish the BP course like about 3 months?

hey guys! i already received my visa and i am already planning to book a flight for october 8 intake in ihna to get cheaper rate. id like to ask what is the best date to leave for october 8 intake and should it be exactly 3 mos for your return date. tia

hi..i am from ihna taking the bridging program..started last june 25 and i am on mu clinical placement now..for 456,you need to strictly observe the 3 month grace period, so you might want to fly into australia just a few days before your october 8 intake so that you can make the most of your 3 month stay..just sayin'
