gud morning! ive been reading this thread since page 1 and what i realized is timing is everything..from the time you submit your ahpra application form, to your visa application then your BP school application..that's why i planned my own calendar to fulfill this "aussie" dream of mine (also im doing this on my own, meaning no help from any agency whatsoever--which do u think is advisable?)

**month of accomplishment is just hypothetical**

december : ielts exam (idp)

january : completing requirements for AGOS-40 form while waiting for ielts results

Feb-march : pass ahpra application form(AGOS-40)

then..........wait for AHPRA Eligibilty

then..........visa application and BP school application at the same sime

is my calendar even possible? whatchatink guys?

your help will be greatly appreciated..I know everyone in this forum has been really helpful..God Bless us!

i have a question regarding on vaccination.

does a varicella vaccine and 2 doses of MMR vaccine still needed for the immunisation.

even though you already had chicken pox and had a shot of mmr when you were young.

thank you.

if you already had chickenpox, you just need a medical certificate from your doctor.

mmr vaccine, 2 doses of vaccination is required, i think the first dose we had when we were young decreases in time.. you also have to make sure that what you had was the mmr vaccine, not the measles vaccine

it's possible.. i just went with the flow with my application. what i can suggest is that while waiting for your eligibility letter, research on the bp schools and find out their requirements, so that when your LOE comes, everything is ready for the school application..:)

hi raprap. are you going to ETEA? i am on my 4th week of the IRON Program here in melbourne. etea is pretty specific regarding immunisations. even if you already had your chickenpox before you have to get a serology for that. also with MMR. :)

thank you. i think its better to have all the required vaccines even though it is repeated so that it would b safe.

hi annie! i just called ahpra regarding my appeal and they said they considered my application and i should just wait for 2 weeks for the letter. does that mean they're gonna give my LOE?

hello did you receive email from ahpra already?

Unisa doesn't need an elgblty letter...you only deal with ahpra after the program...Do you mean you are dong two pathways; applying in ahpra for an LOE and unisa?

does unisa strictly needs 2yrs exp?
