me too.. haven't received the hard copies of the receipt and visa offer letter yet. though i can print them. i'll just wait for the originals to be sure.

have you applied for visa already? what type of visa? thanks!

clinical placement coordinator of con? what a relief. got positive tst too. thanks!

I read this in NSW health site. http://www.health.nsw.gov.au/policies/pd/2009/pdf/PD2009_005.pdf but still it doesn't answer the question, what should we do? sent you a PM.

I applied through email. i scanned all the requirements and sent them by email. you can check their website www.nursing.edu.au :)

Can any pulmonologist do the tst? or does CON have accredited centers for this?

what if you tested positive for the tst?

i applied sept 16. they responded through email immediately. i received a letter by post asking for the lacking docs by oct 5 i think. so do the math but it's not yet an offer letter.

:yeah:

where did you have your tst done? was it positive? we're health care workers and obviously we're at risk of exposure to tb. i think rajotolentino, unadunad, easy1121, gl25,and hopefully me!!!

i got confused too. hehe. i emailed them my ielts results which will be expiring very soon! oct 24. they said they'll see if they would consider it. either way am retaking the exam coz i'll be needing it for the working visa. hopefully!

oh i see. thanks! what about the vaccines? have you completed all of them and the tst?

It was stated below the letter that documents should be current and not due to expire! huhuhuhu!!!:crying2: I hope I can make it before dec 16 so I can also be in CON by jan 2012!

i hope i can join you all on the jan 2012 intake in con!! pray pray pray!

i see..my ielts is expiring on october 24 2011.. are they gonna accept that? although i am planning to take it again this nov..oh no...i have to complete everything by dec 16! thanks unadunad!

I already sent them the certified true copies (scanned). So aside from the scanned copies you also sent the certified hard copies? did you send all the required docs or just the ticked ones? thanks!

same here! i also received a letter asking for the AHPRA letter and police clearance. which i already sent through email. am still waiting for their reply.. i emailed them by the way.

Hi mookiblack! we're on the same boat. I also received a post letter from CON recently. They ticked the AHPRA letter and the police check only. I also sent them a scanned copy of these. I emailed CON and am still waiting for clarification.

wow! that really helped! thanks so much! by the way, my IELTS will be expiring on Oct 24 and some schools need the IELTS test result. If I apply before the expiration date, would they reconsider? can I still take the BP even if my IELTS will be expired by that time? or should I retake the IELTS? thanks so much.....

hi earubi! we're on the same boat right now. hehe. i think we have to apply for bp first then apply for visa. that's the time they'll be needing the vaccinations.

Hi Nathalie, can't PM you yet. i need 15 posts. anyway i'll just answer your question here. actually, when i received an email from an assessor, it took me a month to prepare my lacking docs coz my employer was out of town and I needed her signature. then, around 1 or 1 and a half mos for the approval. my eligibility is only valid for 12mos.

Question: Can you apply online in the schools? or do you really need the original letter from ahpra? I was informed 3 schools are already booked til next year! How can I apply? Do I have to pay the fee upon sending the application?

Mine is only valid for 1 year. I was assessed in NSW. Yes, you must enroll within the validity.

i see..gosh! another expense! thanks!

really? oh no! so I have to take academic IELTS again? and 7 in all bands again? hmmm..where did you take yours?
