Hi everyone, please help me.
I graduated last march 2007 here in the Philippines and I have my license here already.
Because of oversupply of nurses here, it's too difficult to find a job.
That's why I'm looking forward to working in Australia or New Zealand.
However, I'm confused. Esp about Australia.
I already have my bachelors degree here.
When I go there in Aus to work as RN, must I take a diploma in nursing first? can I work while studying?
After obtaining my diploma there, am I already a registered nurse?
Thank you!
Hi dudzy...What visa do I need to apply if my BP provider is LaTrobe and its CRICOS registered? The course is 13 weeks...(Less than 3 months, Jan.4-April 2) Can I apply for 456 instead of 575 (Non-Award)?..or should really apply for the 575?
Thanks for all the info...
hey farah,
i know you can apply for a student visa if it's cricos registered. the 456 costs lesser than the student visa. Try checking with DIAC again and use the Visa wizard :)
:typing Hello guys.. I usually check this site whenever I have questions about nursing jobs and finally I decided to work in Australia.. Like most of you I am a registered nurse with NO experience yet.. And like some people here, I am a second courser. I've been following aelith and dudzky's posts. I am learning a lot... Chabelit are you going to Victoria as well? I intend to register at Victoria.. But I am really confused.. What shall I send them first???
According to aelith, I should send them: .
However, I couldn't open the pdf file she posted.. is it the APPLICATION FOR INITIAL REGISTRATION in http://www.nbv.org.au/web/guest/overseas-nurse-initialreg-requirements ? and how much bank draft will I enclose?
Also, can I ask ETEA for an application form now so I can prepare the things I will be needing to enrol in their institution?
I don't know anyone in Melbourne. I hope you can also tell me if you know a place to rent near the institution... thanks guys.. hope I'll have same luck as yours!!!!:redbeathe
rebekah, visit the nurses board of victoria website, you will find all the information and forms there:
http://www.nbv.org.au/web/guest/home
send all the documents together with the payment (credit card payment will do) except for the document from PRC and IELTS result.
For ETEA, visit their website and check the category NURSING.
hope this helps =)
