i didn't need one when i took the bridging program, that was a year ago

buy where? printers are cheaper here in aus :)

check the immigration website.. it would depend on what type of permanent residency you would apply for. currently it's 3060 AUD for the application(without the health exams). and rules change comes July..

I have 1 yr medsurg and 2 yrs of haemodialysis experience from the Philippines. I have finished the bridging program in Oct 2012, offered a job as a dialysis nurse late March 2013.

if you have the money and experience to apply for a permanent residency.. go for it :)

currently the job openings here in melbourne are more in favor of those who had OR experience..:)

nope..check their website for the examination requirements: St. Luke's Medical Center Extension Clinic Ermita, Manila

you don't really need an agency, you can do it on your own. just trust yourself. and think about the money you can save from the agency, you can use it during your stay in aus. if you have questions regarding the application process or documents to b...

it's possible.. i just went with the flow with my application. what i can suggest is that while waiting for your eligibility letter, research on the bp schools and find out their requirements, so that when your LOE comes, everything is ready for the ...
