    Don't know where BigGuest2012 got the idea that if you were going to live here in Australia that you can pass your IELTS. That mentality didn't work with one Filipino nurse I know. She now works part...

    You need to invest a bit of time by reading posts here preferably from Sept 2011 onwards as changes have happened prior to that date. Start by going to the AHPRA website and print the application...

    bobby123 replied to ShalomRN's topic in Australia, New Zealand

    I'm not really familiar with either NP or PN. It just seemed like what you described earlier matches that job offer. There are different pay rates for public and private sectors. A Nurse Practitioner...

    bobby123 replied to Silverdragon102's topic in Nurse Registration

    That doesn't add up. To be an RN in Australia, you need to be registered with AHPRA. AHPRA reviews your application. You then either get registered or have to do a Bridging Program then get...

    bobby123 replied to Silverdragon102's topic in Nurse Registration

    You are already an immigrant. Take the long route, 're-study'. You said you have zero experience as an RN, even if you pass your IELTS you might find it difficult to get a BP provider as most ask for...

    The Aged Care Course = Carer Bridging Program = Registered Nurse. It's not just 'less likely to get a PR' - you definitely won't get a PR with the Carer's

    Why would you need a Philippine bank in Australia? We use remittance agencies to send money to the Philippines. Open a BDO acct for OFWs in any of their branch there in the Philippines before you go.I...

    You don't need your passport labelled as per DIAC BUT that's Australian rules. Whether Philippine Immigration have the same access re immigration/visa status is a risk I am not happy to take. It's...

    bobby123 replied to Silverdragon102's topic in Nurse Registration

    Sorry, I just realised that the rules might have changed. I'll get back to this question in mid July. I'll be in Manila then. Back in 2010 whilst on a 457 visa, we were only told to pay for travel tax...

    bobby123 replied to Silverdragon102's topic in Nurse Registration

    When you get your 457 visa you would most likely be in Australia. When you go home to the Phils for a holiday, you might need your OEC processed prior to returning to Australia. This can be done...

    bobby123 replied to Silverdragon102's topic in Nurse Registration

    I get it now. Depends on your circumstances. Why do you want to take OET in Australia? You can't just 'enrol' for a BP. You need to be assessed by AHPRA as eligible to take a BP
