danapal - good luck with your appeal. I see that you have taken the comparison a step further. I hope my information helped you in the process? I would be very interested to see the comparisons you...
Hi Ceridwyn. To answer your question. ANMAC recognises most European trained nurses (bachelor degrees or similar under EU directive 2005/EC/36) and it's therefore easier to get an approval from ANMAC...
Silverdragon102 - it wasn't to be rude. This specific thread has more European trained nurses than other threads that are more directed towards nurses from the Philippines - and I was only suggesting...
Hi nice_chan. Where have you studied nursing? I'm asking as this forum is directed more towards European trained nurses, so you might find another forum to be more suitable for you. Do you hold a...
Nosileia - I'm so sorry to read this. Which reason(s) did they give you? Can you appeal an appeal? What's the plan now?? If I can help in any way, let me know. I'm in
danapal - send me your email here (or send me a private message through this website) and I can send you a copy of my comparison - note that I compared the Australian nursing standards to the Danish...
bobby82 - I don't really think it will matter which office you apply to. I have heard that there used to be differences but that this has all changed. I chose the office in the state where I was most...
Nosilea - any news regarding your appeal?? Crossing my fingers that you also got a positive response. One really needs to be very determined if wanting to migrate and work in Australia. My...
I'm not interested in a sponsorship visa. I just don't want to be "tied" to a specific employer for a number of years because if things go wrong with this employer it will be much harder to find a new...
To apply for a skilled visa I also need to have my skills assessed by ANMC. Lots of assessing :) and lots of money to have a bachelor degree assessed. I'm surprised you haven't heard from them yet. I...
Nosilea - any news?? You must have heard something by now as I have already received the formal letter per mail from Australia. I hope it all went okay and that they approved you too. I have now...
My case officer emailed me back. She has no idea as to why they would now acknowledge my nursing degree but she wrote "...but I would think it was the quality of your submission and the equivalence of...
Hi everybody. My case officer emailed me today (without me emailing her first....and that's a first!!). They have now found me suitable for registration and I have received an in-principle approval...
Shugster8 - you shouldn't have any problems considering you have a bachelor degree from UK. The only thing they might ask you to sit is the IELTS-exam (English proficiency) - it wouldn't be the first...
Shugster8....no idea what it means...it could be anything from final stages before giving you registration to final stages before telling you - you need to do a Bridging Program. You never know with...
@Nosilea; I will give an update as soon as I have one. I'm hoping that the fact that I did some of my clinical training in Australia will get me through this. @Bobby82: I would email APHRA before hand...
Nosilea, after I read what happened to your application I contacted my case officer at APHRA. My appeal will still be on the meeting on 5th December so I'm getting anxious now. She said I should no...
Apparently APHRA is now changing the rules for assessing/registration of internationally trained nurses. According to their website they are no longer using the Framework for assessing international...
Nosilea, I'm so sorry to hear this. I can't believe they didn't inform you beforehand - it's the least they could do. You should keep pushing them for a date - you are entitled to know when your case...
Hi Ceridwyn.....I have thought about getting a UK registration but for me - it is yet another way of spending money. I will have a look into it though - it's too late for my appeal case but it's worth...
Nosilea - this will be interesting to see if it in any way will have an affect on all of our cases. APHRA has now received my documents - funny that they received them just one day before one of my...
