Moved to the International forum

Any updates will be on the NMC website but you really should be clear on what sort of updates you are looking for

Are you referring to the immigration cap? I have my nmc decision letter already but I am still here in my home country because of the uk immigration cap. According to my agency, I still need to wait for april because no visas are available currently. ONP candidates are using Tier 2 visas.

The thing is the NHS is currently going through some major changes at the moment and many nurse jobs are expected to go so even though things may change in April it may not due to current issues.

Hi silverdragon, I would like to ask if is it possible for me to take the ONP when I get to UK with a student visa? I currently hold a NMC decision letter and IELTS and my specialty is NICU. Thank you so much!

I am not sure as I think a lot will depend on what the student visa states
