2019 NMC Decision Letter

UK NMC decision Letter stories, CoS stories and experiences

Updated:   Published

So, I decided to start this thread so we can discuss our U.K. NMC decision letter stories as well as CoS and Tier 2 visa application in the year 2019. Especially with all the new updates and changes with the NMC for international registration and Brexit.

I joined the queue on the 20th of February and still waiting for my DL. I know it is still early. But these days, people have been testifying to getting it in less than 15 working days. I am really anxious. Anyone submitted around the time, and still waiting for their DL as well?

I have a question. I have an interview for a care home tomorrow. What possible questions can I be asked? What do I prepare for ? I need advice from people who have done interviews before

They will normally ask questions related to safeguarding, infection control, nursing principles etc. They can ask you questions related to you, about your way of handling complex situations in a care home.

Is it possible to get a job offer without nmc decision letter, just with ielts results before cbt? Has it happened for anyone here?

Yes, it happened with me. I got the job offer on 20th June and I sat for CBT on 28th June. I sat with only IELTS results in my hand.

Thanks a lot, just worried if the job offer won't be withdrawn if it takes months to get the requirements and DL. Any idea what the maximum time frame for resumption is?

Hi all,

I'm looking for some advice or insight on what I am currently experiencing. I entered the queue August 1st, and heard back from my assessment officer September 2nd in an email requesting more information before further assessment.

1) The first thing requested was a license card. I had originally submitted an official document my state issues as they no longer issue registered nurse license cards. I had called my board of nursing and was instead directed to their website where they issue verification reports which contain my license number, status, expiration date, etc. and I had submitted that in my NMC application. I emailed back explaining this and requesting if that will suffice or if I need to get a letter from my board of nursing explaining this.

2) The second thing requested was a letter from the community college I had attended, explaining that my training is equivalent to a 3 year nursing program. However, I went to school at a community college here in the US where only 2 year degree programs are offered. I completed a 1 year LPN program, then a 1 year LPN to RN bridge program, both at this community college. For my third year, I then completed a 1 year RN to BSN program at another University, all of which I had submitted my transcripts and diplomas for. I explained my schooling, and how it is equivalent to three years in total, and if it would suffice to get letters from both the community college and university explaining their programs and length of each.

I had replied to my assessment officer's email with my questions on September 2nd, and got an automated response saying to expect a reply within 5 working days....today is the 6th working day and I've heard nothing. I called the NMC several times last week and yesterday, requesting to speak to my assessment officer and have been told either I can't speak to her, she's unavailable, or have been connected to her line which rang with no answer. Yesterday the person I spoke with put me on hold, then said he spoke to my assessment officer, she's received my email and will continue assessing my application, then hung up on me.

I don't know how to move forward if I can't get an answer on how to proceed or get ahold of anyone who can help me at the NMC. Any advice or experience with this?
