I did not call ETEA yet since the agency are the ones communicating with them and whatever they advise, Ill just follow. The agency told me that as soon as ETEA's accreditation will be renewed, immediately I can have my letter of offer. The big question is when? Do you have any idea about ANMAC's policy on giving accreditation? How long does it take? =\

I am not quite familiar with the ANMAC's accreditation policy. Let's just pray and hopefully the accreditation will be renewed on time before our intakes.

@kkm711,

It's better to photocopy the certificates then have them certified as true copies/notarized. You may ask your board if you can scan/e-mail these or send them via snail mail. Goodluck!

hi, i was told by my agency that I need to have my NBI Clearance photocopied and notarized just like the other documents. I was also told that AHPRA refuses original documents but I explained that I would rather give them the original NBI Clearance since I have no other use for it and it expires after a year. How about in your case (to my fellow Filipino nurses here! :) )? Thank you so much :)

You should have read AHPRA's website carefully before taking the first step. For further info, browse this link, https://allnurses.com/nurse-registration/new-grad-filipino-501897.html

Hi vitug annie, I sent my papers to etea last week and I still didn't get any confirmation if they receive the documents. And I used the credit card form to settle the payment form for the assessment fee. Is that acceptable?Thank you.

Oh alright. I hope to hear from them soon. It's been a week that's why I'm not sure if they got my papers. Thanks annie.
