Im not sure. I dont think so. Maybe for the employment purposes

Thank you stemcell, i also want to know if they require something about australian federal police check that can be paid through online, IHNA required of it for clinical placement. What's the purpose of this? Would the NBI clearance suffice? Or we really need to have the Australian Federal Police check? did ur school required it also?

hi! i would just like to ask some questions about the medicals

- did you print the forms 25 and 150 before going to the center?

- what else did you bring along with you for the medicals?

- do we still need an appointment before going for it?

- where did you do your medicals?

thanks much! i highly appreciate if you respond to this query

HI YAOMING.. i just want to clarify, because i have checked the website the form to be printed and filled out is form 26 and from 160, not 25 and 150 as you previously mentioned. :) anyhow, goodluck and Godbless us.

LOE before was valid for 2 years.Sometime last year APHRA made it 1 year.

Hi twigz.

But initially, your LOE is only valid for a year and you just requested for an extension am i right?

Because what the readers are thinking is, you were granted 2 years validity by the time you received your letter of eligibility.. Which is a bit confusing at first. Based from my knowledge, ahpra issues loe which is only valid for a year..

It happened to me as well.. My loe is valid for a year and i just requested for an extension and i was granted for 6 more months.

My friend mentioned about this police clearance for Australia. If I got it correctly, she said it costs 42AUD.

Yes this is true but I think this is only for AHPRA WA. I had a friend who applied early in April 2011 and his LOE validity is 2 years.
