Thanks MM

 

Can anyone else clarify the process my wife needs to do?

 

We have had a good read through the info on the ANMAC And AHPRA and what a mine field they are.........

As you are the visa applicant your wife doesn't need to apply for a skills assessment (ANMAC). She can apply directly for registration to practice with AHPRA. If she can provide evidence that she was educated at secondary school and university in English then she wouldn't need to sit the IELTS. Apparently AHPRA can be a bit picky with what they accept as evidence. Some have sent in letters from the school/uni while others have provided a statement which they have written and had certified.

I'm going the route of a letter from my school, so far they haven't come back to me so I'm hoping this is sufficient.

Good luck

Jackie

Hi everyone,

I sent my AHPRA application on 20th June and received an email on 1st July confirming that it has been received and is currently being assessed. Does this mean they are actively working on it now? I hope so!

 

Has anyone else recently put in an application? I have no idea how long it is going to take, and I'm being way too impatient!

 

Also another quick question, did anyone put in evidence of cpd or references? I didn't see any requests for this on the application but have heard other people talk about this being requested after they have applied? Have I just been really blonde and completely missed out that bit! I'm really hoping they aren't going to ask for this later as it will just delay things!

 

Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated!

I sent my application on 27th June and received an email on 14th July saying they'd received it. I thought everything would be ok as I'd sent in everything but the kitchen sink! My CV was 8 pages long, it was sooooo detailed, took me an age to complete it. My line manager did me such a fantastic reference that I told her we should employ this person!!!

Was it good enough for AHPRA??? Don't be silly, they're asking for the transcript from the uni I trained at, surely the one used for the ANMAC is what they want? I've emailed them asking that question and am still waiting for a reply. I've heard this can be a long process, different timescales ranging from 8 weeks to 9 months, I only hope I'm one of the lucky ones. I'm actually going to see a psychic tomorrow to see if I can get any clues when I'll be on that plane!!! How sad is that!
