Guest Lisa26 Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 That all sounds a bit odd helent113 :huh: As for where your application ends up, which AHPRA office, I think that ends up as a lottery - we posted ours to the Adelaide office, via Airsure so we could check on delivery, but the online checker kept referring only to Melbourne (not where we wanted) :no: . Perhaps you could phone AHPRA and actually speak to someone and check on all of this as I know other forum users have had similar problems and once they rang, the documents all magically reappeared. Good luck with it all. Hey Val, just seen that you had a pretty quick turn-around with the melbourne office, that's great!! Mine was sent there last month...received in their office 18th May. Still not heard anything re: eligibility. Did you have to phone them? I know everyone's saying to keep ringing AHPRA but I was told initially by them (when I phoned up to find out why they hadn't received my application, only to be told they'd typed in my email address wrong....good job I phoned!) to wait 4-6 weeks to phone, so I was gonna wait 6 weeks. Do you think that's right or should I ring before? Just don't wanna be pushy!! Thanks Lisa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferrymaple Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Well done DD :biggrin: And hopefully your job offer won't be far behind :smile: Still nothing for poor old mum though :sad: Great things come to those who wait :biggrin: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GilraenH Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Well done DD :biggrin: And hopefully your job offer won't be far behind :smile: Still nothing for poor old mum though :sad: Val perhaps it just takes a bit longer to read the more experienced nurse's papers/docs and qualifications, since we have so many of them :wink: Melbourne perhaps referred to the airport where they were processed via airsure?? My airsure papers went through Melbourne but the Registered International airmail went through Brisbane. All were delivered to Darwin in the end though. :biggrin: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kapri Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Hi all I sent all my docs to the Brisbane office and got an email on 11th May to say they had been received. They have not taken any money and I haven't heard any more from them. Do you think it's too soon to phone? It's been just over 4 weeks.

GilraenH Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Hi all I sent all my docs to the Brisbane office and got an email on 11th May to say they had been received. They have not taken any money and I haven't heard any more from them. Do you think it's too soon to phone? It's been just over 4 weeks. I would email them and remind them that they have up to 6 weeks as per their website information to complete the overseas assessment. Ask them if there is anything they require to help them complete the assessment. How long will my application take to process? If your application is considered complete This means AHPRA has received all the information to complete an assessment. Refer to the relevant section of The Health Practitioner Regulation National Law Act 2009 ('the National Law'). The standard timeframe for the assessment of a complete application is: Up to 10 days for graduate applications Up to 10 days for provisional to general applications Up to 10 days for specialist applications (where general is already held) Up to 4-6 weeks for all other application types. Others have then forwarded this onto the ombudsman if not addressed by APHRA and it has been addressed then promptly. Good luck :biggrin: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Val Tibenham Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 I have just fired off an email. Hopefully I will hear soon. I am desperate to start applying for jobs! Personally I'd phone them if you can - they always seem very slow to respond to e-mails. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GilraenH Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 Personally I'd phone them if you can - they always seem very slow to respond to e-mails. Do both, but for the Ombudsman to intervene you need proof that you raised it with APHRA, hard to deny emails but phone calls unless recorded 'might not have happened'. Good luck. :biggrin: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
