xxlornaxx Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 189 visa fee cost on immi website (depends how many ppl). ..anmac skills assesment cost on anmac website (modified is cheaper than full..depends what u need)...then ahpra application cost on ahpra website...ielts test cost (if u need it) on there website (may have to do it more than once..there is other english tests too so depends which one u go for)..medicals..depends how many ppl need one...nmc to send their part to ahpra is abt £36 I think. .getting documents certified can be from free to £25 a page..I got mine free at court house..they usually cheaper than solicitor...some ppl need to pay for academic transcript too frm their uni but mine was free...n think thats abt everything...costs change too. .just before I applied for visa they put price up so what someone paid a year ago may not be accurate now..best to research it yourself n to your individual circumstances for good estimate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ali Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Sorry don't know the current costs but bumping your post. If you look on the ANMC website, it will give you the cost of the skills assessment application, AHPRA will give you the cost of the application for registration and registration fee. It used to be 36 GBP for the NMC to give verification. You will then have the visa cost, medicals, police checks, English test Shop around for having certificates certified - JP's do it, I rang a few solicitors and got a good deal.

xxlornaxx Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 What kind of list? U need the things I listed already and within those things the websites will tell u the individual bits u need like statement of service, ID, qualifications, academic transcript, etc. It all starts to make sense n come together the more reading n research u do...

ali Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 What you need to remember also, is that Australia in some states are finding it difficult to place graduate nurses who have qualified via their own University System and the lists can change at any time (although nursing will probably remain for some time). In the time I have been here I have seen there be a reduction in vacancies for nursing (unless like in Perth a new hospital opens - but the majority of staff have been moved from other hospitals and those other depts closed). Also, there has been a reduction in sponsorship, with a lot of jobs being advertised with 'preference given to citizens and PR'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jac2011 Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 You will easily be looking at £7500 upwards depending on if you are on your own or have extra dependents. For a single person the visa is around £2000 ANMAC and AHPRA £800. Medicals £330 Police Checks £45 IELTS £145 Posting Docs £100 Certifying Docs £100-£200 Flights £800 Accommodation and living expenses for few months £1000 plus And then all the little unexpected costs that come up like getting transcripts from university, NMC fee's, etc etc Also, before you look into anything have you a degree or a diploma?

I havent lived in the uk so i may be wrong here, but 100-200 for certifying docs is a tad expensive. Although i did mine in singapore, certifying 10 over pages cost me around 20usd. I think do call up a few notaries/lawyers their price varies greatly. You dont need a good lawyer, a bad one that charges peanuts will suffice as long as he has chop and ink!

xxlornaxx Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Yes u can shop around..I got all mine free n my friend got all hers for £25..we went to our local courts..much cheaper than lawyers I havent lived in the uk so i may be wrong here, but 100-200 for certifying docs is a tad expensive.

jac2011 Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 I have friends who have paid over £200. I paid £65 at the magistrates (they have been increasing their prices) and then along the way realised I needed extra copies and things signing, so rather than pay £65 I went to solicitors who charge £5/£10 a page (and I went to 4 solicitors in total) so I easily think people could spend £100-£200.
