In that case, I won't include it anymore anyways i wanted to send my application asap. Thanks

My certificates were all in English. I did not submit my saudi council certificate but it's up to you, but just to be sure just submit it. I just sent them my documents 4 days ago. I only asked saudi council for them to send my certificate of good standing. My registration is expired anyway. I am also a nurse here in the UK but we don't have board certificate so I think they're not really asking for it, what they're after is the verification from the nursing body, I hope. :)

Hi! Did you continue with your application with AcN? We had the same problem before. What i did is I just send them my serology test for Hep B. I had anti- hbs of 240 IU/l which is more than their required anti-hbs. They didnt ask me for the hep b vaccine record after that.

I have another question. I am really getting worried and paranoid after submitting all my documents. I wanted to make sure so that I have everything prepared or I can send ahead of time to avoid delay in the releaase of my LOE.

Regarding my school documents, I have submitted a CTC of my diploma however my TOR and pharmacology were all sent by my school together with the certification directly to ahpra. the TOR they submitted is original, I did not bother to send a CTC of my TOR because the TOR i have was issued way back in 2014. Will that be a problem? I was confident that AHPRA will accept it since my school sent them the original and it was directly sent to them.

But now after reading the posts that it has to be CTC, I wanted to make sure before I let my mom go back to my school again and request a new TOR and have it notarised.

I think they will accept the original. If in case not, they will notify you via email. I submitted an original copy of my Certificate of employment and it went well.

Hello everyone. I'm already in the stage of applying for a VISA and complying with the immunization. I'll be taking my BC in IHNA on June 26. I have a few questions:

1. How do I know which medical exams/serology should I do? any specific workups?

2. Do I really need to upload notarized CTC of documents required for the visitor visa subclass 600 or would they just consider me uploading the originals instead?
