I am a registered nurse in the Philippines and now working as an Intensive Care Unit Nurse here in Saudi Arabia for almost two years.
I am planning to move my nursing career further in Ireland. I have paid the €350 assessment fee with the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Ireland (NMBI) and the accounts department already provided me with a pin and advised me to wait for the delivery of my application pack.
The assessment fee was processed since April 17, 2015. I just wonder about how long it would take me to receive the application pack here in Saudi Arabia.
I hope that someone could help me. I'm so excited to process my application for Registration with NMBI.
I'm waiting for the application package from NMBI.My assessment fee was processed on 07/06/2016.i live in South Africa.How long does it take to receive the application package.IS there a way to get in touch with NMBI?
I would suggest to look for a better agency that would not be asking you for any fees. I was with Wise and I personally wouldnt recommend them to aspiring NMBI nurses.
It would be much better to get hold of an agency that is from Ireland as they will not be asking you for any fee.
Regarding the NMBI application pack. I will send it to those who asked for it later.
About the UKVI Academic exam, its up to you to take the risk. I have both the UKVI Academic and the regular academic exam at hand. That is because it is clearly stated that no other form of the IELTS exam will be accepted other than the ACADEMIC IELTS.
Cheers!
Hello there. Can i also have a soft copy of the NMBI application pack? [email protected]. Thanks.
I really want to start my application for Ireland. I currently have a pending application for US but I know it would take long before I get an immigrant visa. Is there an agency in the Philippines or employer that shoulders all the fees for the application? I currently have a valid IELTS test result. I just have some hesitation with regards to my hospital experience since my last bedside experience was in 2012. From 2009-2012.
I didn't know that there was a separate thread for NMBI application. Good to know, now I can read all of the pages and learn something from the NMBI registration to living in Ireland.
I also have started my application with NMBI...have sent all the documents except for the one to be filled out by PRC which is taking ages. Seriously, more than 2 weeks now and no update from PRC. My Part 1, School Docs and Employer's Reference were all received by NMBI since last week.
I am also waiting for an employer's interview.. my agency in Ireland just forwarded my CV last friday to a hospital that is going to be my friend's future employer too. So it was basically a request on my part to be interviewed by the same hospital. I'm very stoked.
Can't believe the big disparity in NMC and NMBI's processing. NMBI is so direct to the point, uncomplicated and just surprisingly easy to fill out. Well, NMC..that's an entirely different story.
And I noticed too that your salary depends on your Nursing Experience..which is a huge advantage for those (excuse me for the lack of a better word) "Old" Nurses like me hahaha!! I was told that a Nurse with over 8 years of experience will earn a lot and as poor as I am in Math, its just overwhelming right now.
Update- Hey guys I started the thread hoping to get a copy of the packet, I've messaged several members who said they have it but haven't heard back yet. If/when I get it I'll send everyone a copy or maybe just post it on here if it's possible to do that.
All of my documents have been received by NMBI and I'm now waiting for my DL. Hopefully it won't be too long.
I am also waiting for my employer's interview. According to my agency most of the hospital workers, I bet those in the higher positions and are tasked to do the interviews and screening, are in vacation right now so it might take a few more weeks. I am targetting a hospital in South Dublin, and another one in North Dublin.
Hi! I sent my registration form last June 26, 2016. Reached Ireland on June 28, 2016 and my credit card was deducted on the same date. My agency in Ireland received my application pack on July 7, 2016 and my Philippine agency emailed me my app pack on the same day. I already sent my Section 1, Section 2 (school, prc and snb) to NMBI, I am waiting for my Nurse Manager to fill up my employer's reference. Hope that will help! Good luck to us!
How many days it took you to receive your application pack, sir? I'm a registered nurse here in the Philippines and have already sent my request form to nmbi. Thank you
