I am a registered nurse (male) from the Philippines and I currently hold an eligibility letter from AHPRA that I need to complete a bridging program. However, I was thinking If is it possible for me to apply for subclass visa 176 instead of applying for the bridging program first, since it would save big bucks if you will become a permanent resident while doing a bridging course.
Has anyone inhere who have done the same thing which I am attempting to do.
I really need your advice, since my eligibility letter will expire after a year.
