Due to recent changes regarding applications for International nurses to Australia and the combining of the nursing boards to one central nursing board in Australia AHPRA I have started a new thread for people to discuss the new process on working in Australia.
Currently New Zealand is not accepting new applicants from International trained nurses except those that meet the Trans Tasman Mutual Recognition Agreement {TTMR} this will be updated once the New Zealand nursing board reopen their books to International nurses.

i spend most of my time browsing dating websites...wahahah! ielts20x is Guinness already. i still can't understand why you have Au nsg license and still be in the Phil (serving humanity hehe), it's not like US wherein there's surplus of nurses in (Winrox uniforms) ahihi! aahhh i'm being attacked again! ahihi!
Thanks , How have you been doing, Got lucky with my house its just 5mins walk to my workplace. I can offer temporary stay in my house once its fully furnish with a minimal rent.This is to help our fellow nurses settle in Adelaide South Australia.
RNOZ1, where are you in Adelaide? Are you in the city? I'm already here doing the BP.. :)
BTW these nurses are Australian. that could not get into a grad year at home and have been working in aged care and therefore were not eligible to go into a grad year in Melbourne as the had worked over the hours allowed to be considered a new graduate.[/quote]
how long are you are considered as a new graduate?
hi everyone! the fruits of my labor/nagging/bothering e-mails to AHPRA has paid off. i fear the extra requirement they're going to ask me is the california license verification, which is very tedious to acquire! btw, i read in the NZ Nsg council that applicants should wait 21 days for NZ nsg council to give their reply that they already have the applicant's documents. i think more or less the same goes to AHPRA. my last document arrived at Victoria on Sep22. and their reply is dated oct8, so that's like 16days...
did you remember the case of haydeeting as shared to us regarding IDP cebu?? its basically the same thing.. and remember what ive been whining here, which you are asking now?? just like you, im mesmerized why do you have to take the long route when there is a short route...
it hurts to say this, but i think its about time to say this frankly.... 99% of our classmates spend more time in facebook or gaming or caring for their farmville, than researching about opportunities of nursing abroad, ask your classmate what they do and you know im correct (same with my classmates)..... compare that to what i did, again as ive mentioned before, at one point of my life ive spent 6-9 hours daily for 3 weeks in the internet reading researching about nursing opportunities, and i never regretted it becoz i got my australian license for less than Php10,000.... perhaps your cellphone is more expensive than my aus license, :)...
we need to read and research to get ahead... this is the information age.. information is power... with information, you will arrive to a logical decision (e.g. 3 mos. bp instead of 1-3 years schooling)..
you have an australian license already? i thought you are just like one of us hopefuls here?
about your cv for ahpra, did you include documents that support your skills assessment?
Thanks!
no i didn't, or rather, can't include it. because in the hospital where i volunteered, they don't include job description in a volunteer nurse's SoS, so...i'm in trouble! ahihi!
btw, love the username! are you a kris aquino fan? ahihi!
I received an e-mail today by NMBWA stating that I don't need to repeat the English Test as long as I finish the BP within 3 years. I called AHPRA and they informed me that as long as the nursing nursing curriculum that I finished is in English, then I don't need to submit an active IELTS for registration.
For the 457 visa, I need to get 5 in each of the four tests.
Thank you Ceridwyn and Cioman!!
@Girlash... as Ceridwyn advised, there's an ongoing debate about IELTS under the AHPRA rules, definitely you will be under AHPRA rules by the time you finish your BP, so while waiting for January 2011, you are ryt, better resit the IELTS..
