I am calling your cp number, unfortunately I could not reach you. Is there something wrong with your connection? I mean your number?

I just would like to ask when is the expiration of your Eligibility Letter AHPRA? thanks... any news from ETEA? hoping for your reply.

Good day aubreyR,

I was there too. Talked to Mr. Ben. But according to this forum, it would be better for us to lodge application with ahpra. I had lodged mine since August and got it today. I have also applied with IDP for UNISA and IDP says Ill hear from them by January 2nd week for the application with UNISA. Better to lodge anything that you can.

Hi sbeattrix! Really hoping that there are still slots available for UNISA. IDP staff is pretty hopeful though. The waiting is killing me. Are you also applying in other schools?

Hi aubreyR,

Apparently, I now have my LOE...so I have to get into the earliest school I can find. Yeah, Miss *** of IDP says there's still slots. When did you apply? I just gave her my docs just this Dec. 5..how about you? Did you apply to other schools? I am still thinking about it. Need advice from people who finished BP from UNISA and other schools...

yeah just email your CO to meet the written requirement, you can alsO shoot them an email trough the web inquiry link but they will also forward that to your CO. Goodluck and Godbless our aussie dream.

Hello nurses! Do we need to have valid IELTS for 457 visa?

[patringrn]

hi! I have a friend, she has less than 6 mos experience and she wants to work in australia. does anybody know how long she would have to study? thanks!!

[ceridwyn]

Have heard AHPRA have brought in the 1 year experience rule to anyone educated and with no experience in the countries that are not required to do the bridging course.

So if she is from the Phils she may not get past AHPRA and will need to do the BN with credit.

Worth trying first though.

guys, when's the best time to apply for 456 visa?? is enrolment fee not yet enough? must the full tuition fee be paid first before applying?
