@yoopian greetings from Philippines, I've been following this thread for quite some times.. keeping my silence ...for almost all of my queries have been asked... so i really find it helpful... however I'm really meaning to ask you.. about your personal view of QSW if I'm not mistaken your are under this program.... which is better having the QSW... in my country of origin before going to canada... or apply for it once you're in canada?... got really messed up with this... since at the moment I am waiting for my final verdict from OIIQ ... however i got an offer to change program to QSW... I've read a lot of messages ... it breaks and unbreaks my heart... I guess i've done my fair share in informing my self about the different things going on... on my own I've weighted the advantages and disadvantages.... nevertheless i just want to know your point of view... i hope I'm not asking to much... your reply is truly appreciated...merci...

@elajo You are absolutely right that the QNP program is much difficult compared to QSW if given ample time i would have shifted program, nonetheless I'm not practicing my profession as a nurse for the time being... my agent advised me to hasten up my application for my working experience might not be valid anymore... (working experience validity is like 5 years ... that's what they told me) Well personally I myself thought that I have forgotten a lot... this might not be good for me....with this time constrain... i opted with QNP.. however I will still apply for the QSW God willing once I get there... perhaps I can get an added points...so bonne chance to all of us ... I'll try to ask alliance as to when will be the next exam... or better yet try to check their site academic calendar is available...

hello..Yes I'm from Enhance as well...I just made my final decision a while ago. If it's true that there's no need to go to hongkong for an interview then that is really great... It saves us from spending... however the need to take the TEFAQ is greatly advised so as to be assured to get the needed points and that is 55 if I'm not mistaken... Although I'm studying french in Alliance Francaises du cebu in my 2nd module... I'm not confident as of I can make it... despite the fact that I only need 2 points I'm still worried... I couldn't risk 15k knowing that I'll miserably fail... so perhaps i have to stick with QNP ... nonetheless when i read the posts here it makes me shiver to death:crying2: about the uncertainties and the difficulties I have to go through once I get there (God willing)... hope to hear from you soon....

bonjour! it's been a long time i haven't visted this thread and I'm quite surprise that there are so many nurses applying in Quebec.. guess we are all in the same boat.. but now I'm in such dilemma i applied for the QNP yet now i'm given an offer to transfer to the QSW... I'm really confused if i have to shift program... I'm afraid taking the french exams however, i have to take it somehow in Phil. to get a bigger points... and is it true Phil. applicants need to go to hongkong for an interview pls. give me some insights about this... merci...

hi! dotaboy:nurse: regarding you questions I think the earlier post would help you a lot, try to read them... I think you're lucky that you are able to pass the point system as an immigrant through the federal system... as for the integration I have known from my agency that they will pay you according to your number of working hours.. I can't remember the correct figures.. and for the exam it will take you 2 days bec. it's consist of two parts.. and of course you have to pay for this exam as well:cool: but he frech exam is for free.. right now I'm also processing my papers I hope you can make the right decision.. but If you want more information everything is written in this thread just take some time to read them... God bless to all of us. Does anyone know about any Filipino who already pass the french exam... thanks...
