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

World Registration

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.

Hi Everyone,I just passed my AGOS-40 application last March 1. I got an email from my case officer yesterday asking for ....

"For applicants to fulfil the requirements relating to the Recency of Practice standard they must demonstrate that they have practiced in their profession (nursing) within the past 5 years.Can you please provide a letter from each of these employers in regard to the positions held. The letters must describe your role in detail and how your skills and knowledge as a nurse were used and if you were required to hold Nursing registration in the Philippines for these positions"

The positions I've held for the past 5 years aren't nursing roles. Any insights/comments/advices are welcome. I'm not sure how to go about it.

Hi emdeeRN,

Correct me if I'm wrong but AHPRA asks of you at least 3 months of nursing practice within the last 5 years to be eligible for registration...

So does this mean I won't be eligible to apply anymore then?

HI faith . . unfortunately, I'm not in Australia yet. . I'm still waiting for my LOE . . .It's almost 6 months of waiting :sniff:. . . I am not sure about schools . . But some schools require at least 2-3 years experience. Other schools would just require at least a year . .It varies. . I am not sure about volunteer experience if it will count . Just try to inquire . .God bless. .

Not without experience. You can also email your case officer for advice on what to do.
