  1. Whats going on with this thread, can't see posts.
  2. Omg thats brilliant Rebekah! At last some good luck has come your way! Congrats
  3. Oh sorry no idea. I wasn't asked to send anything like that.
  4. I think if you have them sent direct from Uni that is usually ok....but don't hold me to that! Inconsistencies everywhere where Ahpra are concerned!
  5. Bouncy you can send them to any office but international applications go via Sydney so just send there!
  6. If you can, go for an independant visa but wait until you have ahpra confirmed! Its a nightmare at the moment esp if u are diploma trained!
  7. Only way to do it is to use a nit comb and thoroughly work through every bit of hair. You need to do this every third day for a few weeks and eventually they will be gone. Very time consuming. The lotions help but definately don't work alone, its the combing that does the trick.
  8. Our time will come...no point stressing over things out of our control. We'll get there :-)
  9. Hi all. Just had an email from my agent saying that dibp have contacted them to say there is a slight delay in allocating COs and currently they are working on applications lodged in March so could be some time yet!
  10. Hi! I think one person on here with a top up degree has confirmed they have got registered up to now. Lots of diploma applications pending a decision.
  11. Congrats lilmiss125. What quals have you got? Are you degree only or diploma too? Maria, welcome to the frustrated nurses forum! Sorry to hear your story, its terrible and unfortunately becoming one we are hearing far too often. I hope things work out for you. X
  12. Criterion 7!? I thought it was 4 they were refusing on? Sorry to hear that Welshboy but good on you for fighting it we are all behind you..and good luck.
  13. Great news Dommo...glad to hear someone with top up degree has been given registration. Thanks for posting and good luck with the visa. Agree with geordiegirl...why not go for 189, you'll only need modified assessment which is half the price! Winner!
  14. I'm in the Manchester area- so probably know a few people mutually! We're all desperately hoping for some positive news on registrations...especially those of us who have spent £10k already so I don't blame you for sitting it out to see what happens! :banghead:
  15. Hi Colette...just seen your post. I'm also a specialist sexual health/HIV nurse. Where did u work before u did midwifery? With your 2 degrees do you really think you won't get registered? I did diploma in 1999 and have topped up to degree currently awaiting a decision from ahpra. Its a joke I know but I'm staying hopeful! Which part of Aus are u hoping to go to?
  16. You need it for your skills assessment by anmac so yes all 7's in academic ielts is required.
  17. Laura, I don't think thats really the issue people have. It's more a case of how the ahpra have dealt with the change. Honesty and transparency from the offset would have enabled them to implement the change with minimal disruption. Eg: when they brought out the new application form it should have clearly stated that Diploma only nurses may not be accepted and referral for bridging/further quals may be required rather than publishing this only days ago when nurses are still waiting for a decision from submitting applications months ago! Most nurses are continuing to study/gain more quals anyway as part of their cpd requirements so I don't think people are clutching at straws either. Australia may be short of nursing posts for newly qualified nurses - but Australia generally are only interested in migrant nurses that are highly skilled and experienced so graduate nurses can't fill those posts anyway.
  18. I think they will continue to renew them. They'll never get away with that!
  19. We lodged 3/6. Haven't done meds or PC's yet. Not heard anything to date. Waiting....
  20. I have had a response from my agent who was contacting Anmac. Basically they are not getting involved and just say that although they work closely together the assessment processes and outcomes are separate. Also they reiterated recieving an LOD from them does not guarantee registration with ahpra. So...not very helpful at all. :thumbdown:
