New grad Filipino nurse wanting to work in Australia/New Zealand Part 2

Published

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.

AHPRA-WA is way too fast in their processing. I lodged my application July 7 and I received eligibility letter last September 8. Praise the Lord!

It's an answered prayer because I did not take IELTS. I only supplied a certification from my secondary and tertiary schools that the medium of instruction was English. But I think this loophole (if indeed a loophole) was patched up just recently with a new advisory that AHPRA released on September 19 specifically mentioning English speaking countries as exemptions. AHHH! I visited a forum in UK and they are very ecstatic. Imagine, they are native speakers but they get flunked on Reading and Writing. Some say they even took IELTS 5 to 6 times already. Unfair? I don't thinks so. We need such hurdles to make us more equipped in foreign lands. This just shows that Pinoys have the English skills comparable to some of our English native friends.Anyway, at least I will take IELTS after my BP. That way my English will be honed while undergoing the program... plus I don't have to worry my IELTS will get expired AGAIN for the third time.

The problem we have with a new IELTS advisory is that the competition becomes stiffer. I hope our fellow Pinoys ahead of us have smoothed our way by their "TLC." We do have a gift in the way we care for our patients... this is one thing that technology cannot duplicate...

whoah. just finished talking with an indian guy from IHNA and all he did was enumerate my certified documents. and that was the end of it.thank you he said afterwards. I think it was not the interview I was expecting... Or now I'm having thoughts that they were merely assessing my docs. sigh. I emailed him and he has not answered yet...

Please give me updates on your status at IHNA as I'm planning to apply there too on the January 2012 intake. God bless you.
