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.

She suggested that I take the May intake but I informed her that I can't go May next year, the may intake ends on August 23 2012.My IELTS will expire on September 25, I dunno if 1 month is enough to look for an employer and get a working visa. I think they are still accepting applications but for later intakes next year. Junuary intake is already filled.
I'll lodge another application to William light institute and AAON as fall backs. I already submitted applications to CON,HPH,DOH NT.
Deakin University will conduct IRON on March. I might consider it also.

Not in WA but in Melbourne failed in clinics due to poor hand hygiene.
i'll call IDP as well since i availed their student assistance.
i just hope that applicants who already have the offer letter are all considered for the january intake hence LTU stated that that intake is already full.
I think that verification form is for nurse practitioners. And its stated there that they don't verify RN licenses because of Nursys. I had almost the same problem when I asked my BON to send a verification to AHPRA. First they told me to send a form from AHPRA requesting for my license info, which such form is nonexistent. So they just told me to write a written request with all the info AHPRA needs. Maybe you can do the same.
Honestly, i am really having a hard time with the form. It's quite expensive by ringing their office then sadly its just the voice mail will receive my call errrrrr.
Maybe i do not have any choice but to call them until i can talk to an office staff. Anyway, did you send your written request thru an email by scanning it or you sent it thru mail?
nope still waiting for it. but i already paid the tuition last friday.
i read from the other forumer that the january intake is full already. so now i dunno if i can still join that intake since i still dont have my CoE.
DAMN!
I called La Trobe yesterday and ask if I could reserve a slot since the international bank draft was sent last Monday; The personnel did not mention anything about the slots being full. Being the OC that I am, I emailed LTU that same day asking if I could reserve a slot for the January intake. Here's their reply (which for me is kinda vague):
"Thank you for accepting your Offer. Your Offer Letter was for January 2012 intake and you will be commencing your course in January."
Like you I am still awaiting for my CoE. I hope we can get a positive response:D

Will you be going for LTU's May intake or will you find another school instead?
