  1. Hi there, we just arrived in Adelaide last week. You can drive for up to 3 months with your UK licence, after then you have to apply for an Australian one.
  2. Your welcome & thanku, we fly out in...6 more sleeps!!!! Can't wait now, I'm so excited!! Just got to finish cleaning & dismantling furniture before the packers come on thurs & fri, but apart from that we are so ready!!!! Mandi x
  3. Just bumping the thread to remind anyone interested of a meet up occurring today in Yorkshire at the Doncaster M180/M18 services at 12 midday, Mandi x
  4. For those interested I've arranged a meet up for this coming Sunday 2nd Feb in Yorkshire, at the M180/M18 Doncaster services at 12 midday, everyone & anyone welcome, Mandi x
  5. Meet up is set for Sunday 2nd Feb at 12 midday see you there, Mandi x
  6. I visited the office in Adelaide when there in Sept to enquire what I would need to complete my registration when I return, they said they will require to see originals of my passport with stamped date of arrival, evidence of my visa & either proof of current address or employment offer. The latter substitutes the current address for those who haven't yet got any ID in the form of utility bills etc. Does that make sense? Mandi x
  7. If anyone wants to ask me questions about getting their A class through the vettasses, i am more than happy to answer. Hi Drewe, I'm enquiring on my OH's behalf, is the process the same state wide? we're moving to Adelaide in March, he's done his Vetassess, now just researching next steps required when there, cheers Mandi
  8. Anyone interested in another members meet up in Yorkshire? Location is the Doncaster M180/M18 services. Date 1st or 2nd wkend in Feb - majority decides. Time 12 midday. The last one was a good success providing a great opportunity to meet new people, share experiences, ideas & advice & to make new friends. My partner Leigh is an electrical engineer & I am a nurse. We plan to move to Adelaide in March & would love to meet new fellow movers, as well as catch up with previous attenders. This same thread is also on the socialising forum on the PIA site, but I will update this one accordingly with info & dates for those interested. Anyone & everyone interested are very welcome, Mandi x
  9. Cool I'll look out for you on PIA & definitely catch up once there! Bet you're well excited?!!!! I'm buzzing! already counting down the days lol
  10. Hi there, how are your plans going? My partner & I are moving to Adelaide 23rd Feb & cannot wait! I'm a nurse (haematology & oncology) & my partner is an electrical/fitting engineer. When I was there in Sept/Oct I visited all the hospitals & distributed my CV to the lead of all the wards/units of my background. At the time there weren't many opportunities for permanent work, but lots of temporary/casual posts available. This was the route I was anticipating having to take just to get in somewhere, that was until I received an e-mail in December, from one of the contacts I'd made whilst there, offering me a post to start this year! Have you contacted anyone over there yet? are you registered with seek.com & SA Health? they are both great resources & notify you of any suitable/appropriate vacancies that match the criteria you input. As regards to engineering, I know there are good opportunities there, however like all tradies, my partner has to take a step back to prove/show his abilities & competence in order to gain his A licence, before he can do the same work he's been doing here for his whole working life!!! frustrating I know, but I kind of respect the Ozy way of rules & regulations, it reduces the number of unsafe cowboys working in the industry, unlike here!!! lol Anyway, it would be good to hear from you & catch up. We don't come on here often, we're frequently on the PIA forum (with same username) if you want to get in touch. Best of luck, Mandi x
  11. Hey there, my partner & I are moving to Adelaide March 1st, he's an electrical/fitting engineer & I'm a nurse (haematology & oncology). How's your plans going? I don't come on this forum much now, I'm more frequently on the PIA one (with same username) as it has much more Adelaide specific info, are you on there? would be good to catch up, Mandi x
  12. Meeting is planned for Sun 13th October at 12 midday at the Doncaster M18/M180 services, everyone welcome :-)
  13. Any members interested in a meet up in or around North Lincolnshire & Yorkshire? or is there one occurring in any of these area's that I haven't come across? I'm a nurse & my partner is an electrician, we're moving to Adelaide in Jan & thought it would be good to meet other members & share experiences & advice face to face & hopefully make some new friends, Mandi
  14. Hi Erica, I'm moving to Adelaide too! hope to go in Sept/Oct. How long ago did you send your application & have you heard anything? I sent mine on 18/03/13 & only so far have only received an e-mail communicating they'd received it & will be in touch should it be incomplete, hoping no news is good news!! Mandi
  15. Hi AM ready!! Try Healthcare Elite, I registered online this am & 8 minutes later received a call from them!! Mandi
  16. Hi Mirmai, inbox me your e-mail & I'll send you a copy of my prof ref if you still require it. Mandi
  17. <p><p>I will indeed & yes it would be great to meet up. Best of luck x</p></p>

  18. Thanku ali, wasn't sure if it would be quicker doing it there in person with all documents with me instead of the hassle of mailing & waiting!
  19. Hi everyone, I've still not sent off my AHPRA application yet, just wondering wether to do it once I get there in Sept/Oct? or is it best to start it now? any advice?
  20. Hi Kelly, I was worried too as I haven't had time to do much CPD! On another thread I got some great info about CPD & what people had submitted etc & one member kindly sent me a CPD template/guide of what they used to document all theirs, if you PM me your e-mail address I can pass it on if you'd like? I just can't remember the name of the thread! lol Mandi
  21. Hi everyone, (may have posted this elsewhere too...sorry)! I've got my PR 190 visa, planning on moving to Adelaide later this year Sept/Oct. I'm justabout to apply to AHPRA for registration & yes I have a few questions!...... Has anyone got an idea on average how long applications are taking in currentclimate to the Adelaide office? Am I right to presume it is acceptable to submit my IELTS certificate insteadof my secondary education evidence? How are peopleincluding evidence of CPD? Can it be listed in my CV with dates, hours etc? arecopies of certificates from study days/courses definately required to be enclosed? Will my own CV formatbe acceptable providing it has all the required elements requested or is itadvisable to present it in the format given as a guide? Also does my CVneed to be certified? or is my signature suffice? Any help will be much appreciated thanku, Mandi
