  1. Meeting AHPRA requirements as a International Trained Nurse from the Philippines

    iamnomad replied to Silverdragon102's topic in Nurse Registration

    The answer is indeed "yes". But it's not a health insurance. It's a professional indemnity/liability insurance.

  2. Postpone Aussie dream? Try Singapore/Middle East first?

    iamnomad replied to bamthechameleon's topic in Immigration Advice

    Your idea is not bad at all. It doesn't hurt to apply and work in other countries while waiting for your "Aussie Dream". The experience you will gain will help you become a better nurse and will...

    iamnomad replied to Silverdragon102's topic in Nurse Registration

    Hi. For Section C, what I did was, I sent them copies of practically any ID's that I can think of. Just send a copy of your Passport ID page, your PRC card, Saudi card, driver licence, etc. Section H...

  4. Quebec integration program for nurses

    iamnomad replied to Remnant_89's topic in Immigration Advice

    sorry to join in the conversation, but the term "land" was the old term for physically entering a Canadian port. That's why they still use the term "Landed Immigrant" or "Landed Permanent Resident"....

  5. Immigration Requirements for Australia and New Zealand

    iamnomad replied to Silverdragon102's topic in Immigration Advice

    I don't know what you mean by the proof of identity to be checked "does not apply". You need to provide CERTIFIED COPIES of your identification documents such as passport, Birth Certificate, driver...

    iamnomad replied to Silverdragon102's topic in Immigration Advice

    Just a reminder that NSW State Sponsorship is CLOSED until July 2014. NSW nomination doesn't rely solely on the published requirements or criteria. Because the state is sponsoring you, you have to...

  8. Nurses with Middle East Experience wanting to register to AHPRA

    iamnomad replied to giacen_17's topic in Nurse Registration

    You still need to undergo a bridging program. There are only few exempted countries. US, Canada, UK, NZ, Ireland for sure. I think Singapore and HK,

  9. What Nobody Tells You: The Reality of Nursing Jobs for Foreign Trained Nurses

    iamnomad replied to rosomebody007's topic in Immigration Advice

    I guess because at one point we encountered someone or know someone who made it successfully in the United States as a nurse and thought we also could be like them. Well, in the Philippines it is...

  10. Ahse

    iamnomad replied to AkoSiKen's topic in General World

    AHSE is actually part of the "ladderized" nursing program offered by nursing schools in the Philippines. I myself finished this before proceeding to the nursing proper. It "might" land you a job as a...

    iamnomad replied to bamthechameleon's topic in Immigration Advice

    you know that you don't actually need an agency to apply for SC 190 or 189. Look at the website of your chosen Australian

  12. What countries/areas are hiring Philippine nurses?

    iamnomad replied to Bethrod's topic in International Nursing

    it is somehow hard to predict if countries will open up for foreign nurses. the demand is downward actually. so i guess my advice is not to focus on going abroad but to practice nursing in the...

  15. Chances of getting a nursing job after bridging. What are the factors?

    iamnomad replied to Idealscholar's topic in International Nursing

    The bridging program (BP) route is the easiest, cheapest, and fastest way to become an RN in Australia. However, the visa that let's you study this program doesn't entitle you to work in Australia. If...

  16. Chances of getting a nursing job after bridging. What are the factors?

    iamnomad replied to Idealscholar's topic in International Nursing

    I guess it's pretty much the same as having an actual face-to-face interview. The HR people and nursing managers are pretty good at gauging whether an applicant is truthful or not. And with any job...

  17. Immigration Requirements for Australia and New Zealand

    iamnomad replied to Silverdragon102's topic in Immigration Advice

    if you have the required points (60 points), then apply for subclass 189. 189 has no restrictions attached to your visa. if you score less than 60 (55 points), then 190 maybe for you as it require...

  18. desire of working in united states

    iamnomad replied to usrnnapoako's topic in Immigration Advice

    Well maybe there's only few employers who actually sponsored an RN from 2010-2013. But I guess that's really irrelevant to your situation. Will the immigration reform lessen the retrogression?...

  19. Immigration Requirements for Australia and New Zealand

    iamnomad replied to Silverdragon102's topic in Immigration Advice

  21. Immigration Requirements for Australia and New Zealand

    iamnomad replied to Silverdragon102's topic in Immigration Advice

    I have not heard of any PR application (err, expression of interest submission) refusal for subclass 189. Given that the quota is not met, which currently at 13,000+ for nurses alone, and you...

  22. Immigration Requirements for Australia and New Zealand

    iamnomad replied to Silverdragon102's topic in Immigration Advice

    not when you're working in NSW. The purpose of state sponsorship is to attract migrants to a particular state - migrants with "intention" to settle in that state. Victoria's website states that...

    iamnomad posted a topic in Emergency

    Hi. I've been reading this "sub-forum" for months now. And I've got a small picture of what the ED world is. But before I point out my concerns, I would like to give a little background about myself....

  24. fed up of ielts. Any OET experts

    iamnomad replied to paki nurse's topic in International Nursing

    I believe the nursing board of Australia requires that you have the desired score in just one sitting. But I heard OET is "easier" coz it's nurse-specific. I mean the questions are specific to...
