hello,

I am a bit confused with the AGOS-40 form. On Section C: Proof of Identity, it asks to provide 3 documents (A,B,C). On the choices of Category A, "Overseas passport with current. Aust. Visa" is the visa really needed for you to apply to AHPRA upon submission of the AGOS-40? What documents did you submit to satisfy Section C?

Hi @pinoyunli. No, a visa is not really required because "overseas passport with Australian visa" doesn't make any sense for applicants with fresh passports. You can just attach a certified copy of your overseas passport even if doesn't have any visa. As far as "category C" is concerned, I attached a certified copy of my "Adhaar Card (an identification card issued to Indian citizens)" . You can chose any other option from the same category long at it provides evidence of your residential address.

Anyone who's in the same situation as me? APHRA received my papers since June 16 and fee deducted from card after a week. I didn't receive any email at all until now.

Hello! I have just lodged mine. how was yours? Did you receive anything form them yet?

I am so happy for you, Danika! I wish I could be blessed with the same fate. I am requesting for documents from my uni in the UK to be sent to AHPRA but I am not really sure if they do issue course description with hours or medicine management/pharmacology. Which AHPRA office did you submit your application? Thanks!

Hi, I have just lodged mine. How was yours? have you received anything from AHPRA yet? thanks

What you need from CHED is for them to fill in the accreditation letter then send it directly to AHPRA, the format is provided on AHPRA's website.
