  1. Hi shelz i posted mine the same day as yours did you need to send anymore documents? Many thanks
  2. Ceridwyn Very experienced senior nurses with numerous qualifications and extensive CPD qualifications are currently in limbo or have been refused registration by ahpra. They have been misinformed and we are all frustrated that ahpra are looking at the word diploma rather than the course content. We are trying to convey to ahpra that registration should be about more than a piece of paper. Your right ahpra may not change but that does not mean we don't have a valid argument. I am not in a position to apply for ahpra as yet, but I am 100% in support of my fellow nurses .
  3. Morning all I have heard back from ahpra overnight, in regards to anmac not being allowed to forward documents to ahpra anymore. They want it directly from the applicants to ensure the integrity of both the source and the documents to protect the public?! No real explanation as to the changes just a lot of words that I can see straight through:err:
  4. As I understand Hollie there are some nurses who have dip he with top up degree that have been given registration, however ahpra reiterate time and time again that all applications are viewed on an individual basis. There is another thread what's happening at aphra - yes spelt wrong, Lots of info on there, ahpra are also on twitter so you may want to read some of their recent tweets. Hope this helps and best of luck )
  5. I had a temp one put in for a temp problem but it kept getting blocked I know the perm ones are more reliable though. Best of luck x
  6. If there are enough nurses then immigration should admit it and should remove it from the skills list, it is unreasonable for one body to say our dip he is equivalent to a degree and another to say it is not especially when they are using the same framework. As a nurse I think we all know about progression which is right and how it should be but this is unfair. I have read many conflicting reports as to the job situation in Aus and would never want to take jobs away from the Aussie nurses, however when you have invested time effort and not to mention money in realising your Aus dream then I think we will continue to argue our case. A lot of us dip he are band 6's and 7's in the UK with highly specialised jobs and would only be an asset to any healthcare provider as well as a mentor to newly qualified nurses. Don't get me wrong I have a plan B, but for now I'm happy to continue to "clutch at straws"
  7. Do not wish to jeopardise the registration of fellow dip he currently in oz but surely if dip he does not meet the national law (53b) which is consistently quoted by ahpra, then how can there registration be renewed if they are now not working within the national law. I have heard that dip he nurses have had there registrations renewed whilst this fiasco has been ongoing. I feel another tweet coming on :confused:
  8. It has all gone a bit quiet overnight on the twitter front! No response to my tweets, don't know if that's a good or a bad thing ?!
  9. Well said....get on your emails people ) once I've got my LOD from ANMAC, he will be my first email. Us UK nurses will not go quietly
  10. Good luck, hope you get some positive news. Keep us posted
  11. Another point (while I'm on my soap box) the new model is apparently consistent with requirements of national law. When you click on this link it brings up all the health practitioner regulation national law for each state - all of which are dated 2009 - 2010. So if the national law has not changed where exactly have they founded these changes?!
  12. This is outrageous and I'm very grateful not to be that far along in the process! Really feel for you and your family:// Just in limbo at the moment stalking twitter and forums and ahpra website for any news.
  13. Hi bouncy I'm looking into this but would still take a long time and my work will not fund it waiting to hear back from a few universities. Just fearful that in the meantime ahpra could move the goal posts again
  14. I have been on there website and looked at this I've looked at the difference between the AQF 6 and 7 and the word that keeps cropping us is coherent?! I've been nursing for nearly 10yrs and would class myself as pretty coherent! It's barmy that two organisations can assess the same qualification against the same criteria and cannot agree!
  15. Hi bouncy hopefully you should be fine if you topped up to your degree, that must equate to the aqf level 7 at least. We sold our Uk home to fund the PR visa, thought I might fail on the medical, turns out it was registering as a nurse in oz that would've the sticking point! does anyone think they may revert back to accepting dip HE? Are there enough nurses in Oz and that's the root course of the change?
  16. Hi everyone I been keeping a close eye on poi and twitter, it's an absolute desperate situation and as clear as mud! I've no idea which direction to take, ANMAC is currently going through. Ielts completed. I'm a paeds nurse with a dip he with 45 credits at degree. I've looked to topping up my dip he, but takes a long time and costs a lot of money, other option, if I'm offered it is the bridging course but I assume it will be very adult based, costs a lot of money and will I even pass it?! Anyone in a similar situation? Hope you all get a positive outcome
  17. Oh no! Not been on here for a while, currently waiting on ANMAC. I've got a Dip HE Children's Nursing with 9yrs experience, have got 45 credits at degree level but have not topped up fully to the degree. Has anyone with a dip he only been refused registration as yet?! Is my oz dream over before it's begun?? :cry:
  18. It sure is Kellyv back to the drawing board! At least it's quite early on in the process, every cloud eh!
  19. Hi everyone! Received an email from ANMAC, NMC and University still have documents yet to land in oz! Requested these on the 14/04!!! Arrrgggh! And my professional reference does not meet their requirements (
  20. Wow! Thank you all for your responses, you certainly have given me lots to consider. I've just finished work so I'm going to eat and try and compute all the information you've given and talk it over with the hubby. I can certainly understand that if your investing £5500 in Medicals and visa cost why not give yourself the best chance of having a successful outcome by getting an agent on board. Hmmmmmm time to get some quotes I think :wink:
  21. VS and Rupert thank you for your recommendation however I was hoping to do the visa process without an agent, my thinking was if I didn't get it the the agent cost (which I've heard a significant) would be more money lost?! Any thoughts?
