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. Yeah, you're hope is right. You do not need to undergo a bridging program. I also have a US work experience and they waived the BP requirement for me.

Thank you for your application for registration as a registered nurse received by the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA) on 7 March 2012. Your application has been reviewed and currently no further information is required from you. Your application is now required to be considered by the Registration Committee of Queensland. This Committee meets once every month and can therefore cause slight delays with expected timeframes. When your application is to be considered by the Committee, you will be notified via email of the relevant meeting date.
Does this mean that it is already for final approval? TIA! :)

you have any experience in the usa?
btw, does a supplementary card satisfy the credit card reqt? the card is named after me but the fees are paid by the main cardholder? aside from the bank acct, can assets/properties be sent as further proof?
hi! i'm currently attending to one now.. we just finished r days orientation and next week will be the start of everything.. i think i have loads of things to be prepared for.. good thing my visa was granted immediately after signing that health undertaking form..
Wow finally someone who undertook the ARNTP. :) Let me just ask how you will be registered with AHPRA? Will it be after the course or during? and what is that health undertaking form that you mentioned? Thanks for sharing btw :)

Hi, i don't have any USA experience. I just volunteered at a government hospital here in the Philippines for 8 months.
A relative of mine used her credit card to pay for everything.
