Thanks @TranceX3!

I was starting to worry as my friend got an email from her RO. Phew!

How long did it take for you to get your LOE?

unfortunately it took for me 9months of waiting because it was during that time that they implemented a new set of requirements.. but now a friend of mine lodged an application last april and she received her eligibility last July.

for a peace of mind if you are worried, you can make a call or an online enquiry about the status of your application at ahpra website.

Hey guys! I am going to apply for bridging program under IHNA after my cert 3 in aged care is finished. What visa should I apply for while still in Australia?

If IHNA provides Cert of Enrollment (CoE), student visa is still the best and safest visa. I think you have to discuss it with your agent. :)

Usually, where does the medical exam being performed for tourist visa application for BP australia? and how long does the result be released?

thanks..

Surely!, I cannot reply to your message as PM is disabled. I had my medical at Nationwide Health Systems AUX inc in Makati. I think you can also have it at St. Luke's Clinic Global City. You just have to bring with you your HAP ID. The results will be sent directly to the Au embassy.

REPOST:

I graduated with my BSN last year 2014 in the Philippines. Then got my USRN license with Guam on October 2014 (I have no PRC license, because I am not a Filipino citizen). I have zero RN experience.

I submitted my application for registration to AHPRA in Sydney personally on June 15, 2015, then received an email from my RO about 3 days later stating that my application has been received and stated additional documents that I needed to submit.

I then submitted all additional documents, and on September 2, 2015 all the additional documents were received and my application began assessment. I am currently awaiting there decision, and hoping that I receive my LOE to bridge soon.

Is there anyone here who is in the same boat I'm in? (Being a recent grad with zero RN experience) Any helpful information would be very much appreciated.

On the AGOS-40 form, there was a question asking if I graduated less than 2 years ago (which does apply to my case). What's the significance of this? Recency of practice maybe?

is there a visa that allows us to stay in Australia for 4 months while taking the BP instead of the usual 3 months?

thanks
