chocokat79 BSN

I don't mean to ruin this thread's welcoming and pleasant atmosphere. But like wahine888 and NewMac I am also just being frank. @wahine888: Yes I agree some people are "super sensitive" and that we must be careful with what we say. I believe that's ...

I understand and respect your point physteac when you applied the word "super sensitive" in that context. But contrary to your point of using that word with regards to adjusting to a whole new culture, wahine888's usage of the word I think pertains t...

I would also be interested in this query of yours. I also wanna know if there are people who were given assessments other than Registered Nurses by other boards aside from QNC. I doubt NBV or other boards for that matter will reject applications stra...

I agree with you NewMac. This thread already has a lot of pages and newcomers tend to ask questions that were already answered in the previous pages. Though I think that posters here have every right to voice out their emotions (anxiety and confusion...

Hi there, thought I'd butt in and share my experiences When I started BSN here in the Philippines I was already married but we didn't have kids yet. Then after a year I got pregnant and stopped school. As a young stay at home mom I think I did just f...

Good morning guys! Hey, thanks Haoyin for that information! Seeing your post is a good way to start my day! :) I guess I better start hitting those books now....

That's good then. Maybe there's a long list or queue for slots left. Try ringing them. :)

Thanks physteac for your encouraging words! Wow, your niece is lucky her papers were assessed for just a month. If you've read the latter parts of this thread you would see a lot of people who have been waiting for their assessments for a few months ...

Hi physteac. Nope I haven't applied to NBV yet though I think I might start compiling my requirements in the coming days. I am still waiting for NSW's assessmet. I just asked you because I wanna know as of this time how long does it take for NBV to g...

Have you applied to NBV for assessment? You're an overseas nurse I presume? Before a school or BP provider can accept you you have to have a referral letter from the board of nursing in that particular state or territory. Chances are, if you've just ...

hi there reeta. Seems like you're lost. Maybe you can try checking out this tnread https://allnurses.com/international-nursing/newly-grad-filipino-287930-page414.html#post4121873 Try skimming a few pages back. That's the thread where all info about B...

hi there physteac! when did you mail your docs to NBV? Are you already assessed as an RN? Wow... so the next intake for Deakin is next year already? Hmm...

Thank you Haoyin for replying. I would do the same and post here whatever info I can gather regarding EENs. Are you here in Manila? May I know the migration firm you are talking about? You can PM it to me. I'll be willing to pay for a consultation se...

Hi cioman, thanks for relplying. Anyway after some research I found out that YES, EENs can be legally granted a 457 (work) visa granted that an employer will sponsor you. But I have yet to see info on whether they are eligible for PR after some time ...

Yes I do. That's why I also applied with NSW-NMB. But at first I tried QNC because of all the routes, QNC is the cheapest as you do not have to study for 12 weeks. You just have to take a written exam here and then if you pass then you have to do 160...

@narscathy: I applied to both NSW and QLD. NMB stands for nurses and midwives board. I suggest you apply to both NSW and VIC if you don't mind spending for the application fees. Then whoever responds positively... Another consideration would be, wher...

Yes I am. :)

Hey guys, I hope someone can answer me.. Do you guys know if overseas applicants like us who were assessed as ENROLLED NURSES are also eligible to apply for a WORK VISA/PERMIT assuming of course we've passed the BP an employer is willing to sponsor u...

Hi there. I'm not Aelith hehehe but I'm just curious. Are you taking one of the modules of CQU? I think the best person to ask that is the Program Coordinator herself. Try asking for an appeal or something. Because they're the only ones who can reall...

Oh okay! Now I get it. So now I think the best thing to do is to wait till about 7-8 months before my IELTS expires before applying for the Visa Screen . Or submit it last, after submitting all other required documents. I dunno... if you'll ask me I'...

@jpsnpdro: Oh okay, thanks! That cleared things up for me. Good luck and God bless on your application! @silverdragon: Thanks for the reminder :). But really? If my Visa Screen expires, then I have to resit the IELTS again? I thought that once you su...

Hi there narscathy! Nope, there's only one school authorized or accredited to hold the Competency Assessment Program in NSW, which is The College of Nursing. That's the name of the school and that's in Burwood, NSW. I guess that's one of the reasons...

Me too buddhaboy, I really want to work in California so that's where I applied. So now I'm done with NCLEX and IELTS so at the moment I am just saving money for me to apply for the Visa Screen. Of course I have to obtain the Visa Screen before my IE...

Hi there. Are you still planning on applying for QNC? Haven't you read in the previous posts that they have implemented a strict deadline? I don't think they're accepting applicants anymore... A lot of people have applied to QNC because as of last ye...

Yes I think so too cioman94. I think I also read somewhere (or was it indicated in their letter to me?) that one reason why QNC has a deadline is because CQU's contract with QNC is also expiring on June or July of this year. Whereas The College of Nu...
