Meeting AHPRA requirements as a International Trained Nurse from the Philippines

om'sarah · Jan 11, 2014

hello everyone! i just want to ask regarding the number of days your case officer require you to complete your remaining dcuments? AHPRA NSW gave me only 45 days, some here were given 90 days... is it a case to case basis? they are just waiting for my course syllabus, they received already my cert of good standing. TIA! :)

HI to all!!!! I would like to ask anybody regarding job interviews in Australia (New South Wales) specifically in nswhealth.erecruit.com. I was interviewed last 6th of December 2013 for a position on a public hospital. Its almost an hour of phone interview then on the latter part they asked about my Professional References (to whom they should ask about me) and, asked if I needed a sponsorship. Thats it! It will be 2 weeks then since the interview I havent heard anything from them, I have emailed them twice already. NOW, does anyone here had the same experience? Or (To those who got a job already) How long did it take for you to wait? or for them to decide?. ANY ADVICE?? Thank you, God bless, and Happy Holidays to all!!![/quote']
call them. usually it would take more than 2 wks but still give them a call coz thats the fastest way to talk to them :) good luck! :)

Employers here will usually email or ring you whether you got the job or not. Asking for your reference is a very good sign.. good luck! :)

happy new year everyone! it's been a year now since I've last visited this forum. and a year as well since I've gotten my aphra letter.
unfortunately, it's a "refusal". so for a while, I've been searching this forum if the reason for my rejection was valid, but the threads has become way too many.
so the reason that i was rejected was: "I graduated from a College school, which was different from aphra's required University based degree."
Back then, my agency was the one handling everything, but know I'm trying to get hold of my situation.
i wasn't able to contact aphra before because of their advice to just take a different step.
and it's just now that i would like to try and contact my case officer.
A friend of mine told me that aphra may have mistaken my college for TAFE/Vocational?
But I just want to hear your opinion guys.
If being rejected because I came from a College school was a legitimate decision.
Thanks
(I'm currently here in Melbourne)

Hi.

Im also from a college school, but the course curriculum proved it otherwise that it is not a TAFE/Vocational. I was only asked about my Pharmacology subject whether was it given as one subject or in between the NCM 101-105. I just needed to give them a letter from the school stating I had my pharmacology integrated within the Nursing Care Management subjects. Hope this helps.

Hi, what are the requirements for the letter of eligibility of Ahpra? And where can I send it and how much it will cost? I can't find it in their website. Thank you in advance!

@nuveao / @machaix --- as of the changes effective 22 Oct 2013, yung cert of good standing MUST be forwarded directly from the organization (saudi council) to Aphra state.

Just visit your local saudi council office inside ur hospital compound and they will do the rest, you just need to pay about 300sr in my time then wait for the certificate but i heard you can do it online just ask any staff from your own saudi council office

thanks @noveau! i have looked up their e-services, but its seems not yet in service ahm, can you help me out on some confusions below? :)

1. SEC C: Proof of Identity. i dun have any doc supporting Category A&B (on b i have my 5-yr old PH Univ Student id, but they're looking for a recent one). is it ok as of now not to complete those and just comply when you'll be there in Aussie and done with BP?

2. SEC H: Suitability Statement. #15 - Health Care Insurance. i dont have one (not a must for us here in ksa). is it the same case with my 1st question(SEC C)?

3. after you sent your docs to APHRA and got you E. Letter, you enrolled to BP school while your here then files for a visa? did you file your visa here in ksa or you in ph?

shukran katir! ^_^

Hi.

For Section C, what I did was, I sent them copies of practically any ID's that I can think of. Just send a copy of your Passport ID page, your PRC card, Saudi card, driver licence, etc.

Section H #15 is not a question if you have a health insurance or not. The question is if you're committed to have a professional indemnity insurance (sometimes called Liability Insurance) during your registration period. It's an insurance that covers you in cases of negligence, etc.

For health insurance the answer should be yes in the form
