To those who already submitted their AHPRA application, may I ask how you did your Work History in your CV? Is it from current employment to previous? Or from previous employment to your current one?

[butterfly, RN]

I believe it is per document and costs 75 pesos.

>> In my opinion OET was easier and more straight forward. However, be careful with Reading as it is by far very challenging. Many fail the writing part as well simply by writing immediately without looking who was the letter intended for.

Cheers!

Good day everyone!!

im on the process of selecting a school for the bridging program. I have recently received my referral letter from APHRA. Can anyone shed some light regarding the Australian Federal Police Check?

Does it have to be complied at once or upon arrival in Australia? Im quite running out of time as im aiming for the September intake at Sydney.

I would really appreciate some response. Thank you!! God bless everyone!! í ½í¸‰

Hi guys! Just want to say thank you to everyone who has been very helpful with others giving info. Im not an active member, I just read posts conversation most of the time and I must say I got heaps of Infos about how to apply with AHPRA.

I want to share as well that God is good! I lodged ahpra application last august 2014 here in Sydey office and just received my LOE today, I also received my letter of offer same day. By the way I have been living here in Sydney for almost a year now and working as an AIN at one of the retirement facility in NSW.

If you have questions like what its like about living in here, what to expect.. Just PM me your email. Welcome to Australia! God bless everyone :)

PS thanks heaps to the creator of this thread.. :)

Hello again guys! I got my referral letter from AHPRA and I got questions, can anyone help me with this matter? I'm pretty sure that in some point some people would ask the same question. Anyways, I would like to ask about what happens next after bridging program. Because I do have a line-up of schools to choose from. After the program, do we need to personally send the application again because I know for a fact that if you were referred to a bridging course, your application will be refused. So to reiterate my poorly constructed question, do I need to resubmit and undergo the assessment again for AHPRA registration or is it the school who will take care of it? Thanks!

Hi, how many months did you wait for your referral letter from AHPRA?

[Mattskiematt]

Hi meggielita, it took me a hefty amount of time because when I applied for my application, it was the time that AHPRA was updating their criterion. Hence, it was almost a year before I received my referral to Bridging Program.

Hi! Anyone here for the Aug.3 IHNA Melbourne intake?

Anyone with the same experience?

Hi mattskiematt, when you submitted your IELTS result form, is it certified copy or an original one... the current form states to send a copy. It does not specify whether certified or original.

It must be certified copy
