Hi everyone!

Happy New Year!

I just started gathering my documents for AHPRA while currently prepping for my PTE.

I'd like to see to it that once I passed my english exam, I have my documents ready for mail. Would somebody be kind enough to tell me what is still missing from these? (Yes I've checked the AHPRA website but I also want input from those who already have received their LOE) thanks!

Hi.

- Anyone here with a USRN license applying for AHPRA? I was wondering if they still need a Certificate of Good Standing from NCSBN. I tried Nursys but it's only for interstate endorsements.

- I'm currently working overseas. Ii'll be asking my brother to have my documents notarized from the Philippines however, my other credentials are with me. My question is, do you think it will be a problem if my documents are notarized in 2 different countries?

Thanks to anyone who replies! Blue skies :)

yes they still need a certificate of good standing. They are soooo picky, the more the better. Be prepared for anything they might want. If you think they might want it, just get it done beforehand, and then you could always send it after they have formally requested it, but 100% they wanted my certificate of good standing. I applied this April and got rejected since I dont have a BSN.

For your certificate of good standing, did you request from your specific state? Mine is Colorado.

Hi Kcg111215, I am enrolled at ACFE for February. Where are you coming from?

[bedarc07]

See you there.

[katikati]

yep- state specific- as a California resident, had to submit through the BRN in california. So, also include all the states where you have worked as a nurse too, incase they are different from Colorado.
