Hi guys! Just wondering if there is anyone here who tried to lodge his/her AHPRA qualification documents for IRON program without processing the documents from CHED? Also, are the nursing school documents really meant to be sent by the school itself? Thank you!

Hello there! I just wanted to know if is it advisable to lodge an AHPRA Registration application 2-3 weeks before the end of the bridging course? Some of my mates want to register asap while still undegoing the bridging course saying its allowed and they are all thinking that it's better to lodge earlier so that the license will be released on time, but I don't think it makes sense at all since it will still be considered incomplete and the acquisition of a locense might take much longer for them. Any ideas? Thank you.

Hi!

To answer your query. Yes, you can submit your AGBP 40 2 to 3 weeks prior to culmination of your BP, this way initial assessments and document verification will commence and AHPRA will definitely get in touch with you and advise you to pass the graduation cert or graduation list (from school) whichever comes first and other documentations if any. And this way, once they get it, in 2 days MINIMUM you will get registered. Might as well you walk in as you lodge at an AHPRA office near you so they can peruse your documents before taking them.

That case happened to me. So I got registered fast as compared with the rest. Cheers!

Hi all! Is there anyone here who knows how to send the COGS from Saudi Arabia directly to AHPRA? Thank you.

If it is COGS from SCFHS, you can go to diplomatic quarters and they will be the one send it to AHPRA. For me we just paid i think 150sar.

Thank you. I already got my COGS, my only problem is how to send it to AHPRA. My friend who is helping me with it is based in the Eastern Region. Is there a diplomatic quarter in Dammam?

I'm based in riyadh.I think there is SCFHS office in dammam. Just bring your COGS there as they should be the one to send it to AHPRA.
