NMC Processing

I've read several posts here regarding the processing of NMC and yes, it was all helpful.

But I just want to share my personal experience and would like to ask anyone from the Philippines who have started or who are still processing theirs.

I've applied for NMC registration (through an agency) last September 2013. I've received my pack 1 after 2 weeks, paid the fee directly to NMC and submitted the requirements through the agency. I was the interviewed and got hired by an NHS hospital (through the same agency) last October 2013.

The thing is, it's already March. Twenty-****-Fourteen. And I'm still waiting for the Pack 2. I'm getting really really hopeless and frustrated as to how and why the NMC is taking so long in sending my packet 2.

I just want to ask anyone who could give an insight to my situation or share the same experience -- especially those who were hired by NHS through Philippine-based agencies.

Does the employer/hospital really willing to wait til you receive your decision letter?

Is it possible to be deployed to UK while you are still waiting for your decision letter?

Recently, I've come across a lot of job ads here in the Philippines regarding employment to UK, but does anyone here knows the true employment situation in the UK? Do they really need Filipino nurses knowing that it can almost take forever processing the NMC decision letter?

I apologize for sounding a little desperate here for answers. But, truth be told, I am quite desperate for answers. So I would deeply appreciate anyone who would respond and share any info. Thanks.

    For those who had an error on their portal

    I called NMC to explain what happened but still my portal was not fixed

    i cannot view the uploaded documents

    the "open" link was gone

    do you just wait it out? Or call the NMC again?

    Hi! I am already on the full assessment and application stage. I am on the process of accomplishing the downloadable bar coded forms and already submitted my uploaded documents. However by mistake, I uploaded a blank page instead of a copy of my Registration Certificate. It was really not my intention to pass a blank document, it was due to some technical problems with my computer. I hope I am not gonna have problems with this one. Do you think NMC will notify me to upload a new copy? Thanks

    Hi,

    I know this thread is quiet old but this relates to my question. My one reference for at least a three month period of employment from my most recent employer (within the last three years) was as a Healthcare Assistant. Would the NMC accept one referee from there? I don't have another referee from my previous employment where I practiced as a RN. If there is, my manager had already resigned, would that be fine? I'm hoping in one way or another is acceptable.
