Nmc application: Employment gap

Updated:   Published

Good day fellow nurses!

I'm an aspirant nurse for UK and I really need help or some advice from you who share the same experience with me or have knowledge about my concern.

I just received an email today (NOV 27, 2017) from an NMC assessor and he/she asked me to re-submit my application after I comply with this:

Employment Gap - Applicant must declare by way of declaration if she has undertaken any work as a nurse (unregistered or registered) during the following periods: June 2016 - Present. In this declaration, applicant must also confirm whether she has resided in any country, other than the Philippines, for period of 3 months or longer over the age of 18. Applicant should submit this information as a Self-Declaration or a Curriculum Vitae (C.V/Resume). This should be uploaded to the Portal as 'Additional I.D'. Any gaps in employment should also be noted.

-------------------------------------------------

I resigned from my previous work last June 2016 and never had or applied for work after that. So, I have been unemployed for 1 year and 5 months now.

Questions:

1. Will my employment gap affect my NMC application? Or, will they just ask an explanation/declaration from me about my work gap?

2. If you experienced the same, how did you proceed with your application?

I would highly appreciate your feedback. Thank you and may God bless you.

Can somebody send me an example format of their working gap letter? Thanks a lot

Hi fellow nurses,

Im glad I’ve seen this thread. It is really helpful. I’m also currently on the documents review in my NMC application. Just recently I received an email from the NMC that they need me to submit a copy of my CV and self declaration of any employment gaps and registered/unregistered practice.

I also have employment gaps. I’m unsure how to make a CV with explanation of employment gaps..

@nandha charles I’ve seen your previous posts. Can you please send me a sample format of the CV with self declaration of employment gaps. Here’s my email add: [email protected]

thanks
