I was expecting APHRA to take a while but was only 8 weeks hoping ANMAC will be just as speedy? Was hoping to be out to Brisbane beginning of September?

Once ANMAC had received my application, it took 1 week to process. I received my certificate 10 days after it was completed. I have just been invited to apply for the 189 visa, hoping to submit my application this week!! Exciting times ahead!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyliedonut Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 DAYS??!!! WOWWWWWZA This makes me ridiculously excited, but also a bit of a panic I'm planning on sending AHPRA and ANMAC on Monday....to think I could get an invitation by the end of the month is craaaaazy! Im presuming neither of you @brunettegal84 @louloubelle were asked for additional documents?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samjwilli Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 Ahpra was received at the beginning of December but they requested further information on Christmas Eve - my references had put the number of hours per week I had worked. Anmac was relieved the 5th January but haven't heard anything yet. eeek how exciting. Congratulations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

louloubelle Posted January 12, 2016 Author Share Posted January 12, 2016 I submitted ANMAC around 15th Oct and they asked me for some info on 1st Oct, just my IELTs test results needed sending directly and my reference had forgot to date it so I needed to send an email. So I would say about 10 weeks altogetherwith Xmas and new year and Samford AHPRA. I was pleasantly surprised was e expecting far longer for AHPRA with all comments on here.

brunettegal84 Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 I didn't need to supply further documents, it was straight forward. I have been registered with AHPRA since 2013. I have already spent one year in Australia. Can't wait to go back! How many points do you have for your visa? I am in the UK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karmann22 Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 I am a UK based Nurse and i have received the eligibility letter from AHPRA. Do i apply for the modified assessment with ANMAC or do i have to do apply for the full assessment? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chan8180 Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 You have to apply for full assessment even if you have the eligibility letter, I was hoping the same but no. You can only apply for modified once you are on the register by presenting in person in their offices. I'm about to send my application off this week, I may include my letter from APHRA it may help?

Charlottehill76 Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 I got my AHPRA provisional registration letter today! I just need to ask for extension as wont be over there till later this year, hopefully June time we are planning for. I've already got Anmac approved before Christmas and EOI came back before new yr, I'm filling in visa forms this week along with assistance from my agent. Hoping to submit this week/next week depending agent. Time line: ANMAC paid / sent 16-8-15 completed 11-12-15 almost 17 weeks including asking for extra doc/evidence, waiting for uni and NMC to send stuff. AHPRA sent 16/10/15 completed 13/1/16 almost 13 weeks including sending more evidence and delays with other parties sending evidence i.e. university and NMC and there was Xmas holidays in that too. EOI submitted 13 /12/15 invited 17/12/15 4-5 days turn around - had 65 points and applied just before a invite date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to perth hopefully back end of the year Yes a simple email is enough, it took them 2 weeks to acknowledge my request for an extension, someone else said they got an instant resposne, so as usual do not panic if you hear nothing.

Congratulations on AHPRA registration Charlotte, the visa itself should be straight forward! Our house is up on the market and that is the final thing to sort out. Flights to Sydney are booked in June but not sure where we are going to settle yet, we plan to travel first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've just (finally) had everything certified, sent ANMAC application off yesterday and completed my application for AHPRA. I was literally about to post it and noticed on the back that the application will only be valid until 31/05/2016. There's no way we'll be there before that date...what happens in these cases? I can't wait because the documents are certified with the date, and I'm keen to start applying for jobs. Any advice massively appreciated!xx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any advice massively appreciated!xx Do yo umean the date on the actual application form itself? These are changed regularly, you need to make sure you are using the latest version, I think you are refering to this date and it simply means that after 31/05 you will need a new form as the questions will change, however if you have already submitted before this date this is irrelevant.

Bushpiglet Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Hi. Thanks for the reply. On the last page of the application forms on the AHPRA website it states: "The annual registration period for the nursing and midwifery professions is from 1 June to 31 May. If your application is made between 1 April and 31 May this year, you will be registered until 31 May next year". This implies that by registering now, the registration will only be valid until 31 May this year? I think?! Confused! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, this is refering to the yearly fees you pay, if your registration is complete in the last month before the year ends, they are saying you will still be registered for a full year before having to pay the yearly fees. If you are reigstered before April, then you will need to pay naother years subscription come 1st June. I think that until you get your PIN you are not officially registered and thus do not need to pay the renewal fee, at least that is what I am expecting, when we land in June and finalise the application and get the PIN, my partner will then have 1 years full registration ebfore needing to renew.

brunettegal84 Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Hopefully 65 points. Where will you be going back too? I only had 60 points. Submitted EOI 12/10/16, invited on 8/1/16. If you have 65 points you should get a quick invitation. Good luck. I'm heading to Perth first then maybe onto Sydney. Depends how I get on with jobs etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyliedonut Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 I've got everything at solicitors getting certified just now. I've got 65 points too. Hopefully get ANMAC and AHPRA sent off next week. Scary to think how quick it could come round if I have done everything correctly (fingers crossed) then it's just save save save! I only qualified in September, so won't be going over until I have at least 12 months experience here. Keeping my eyes firmly locked on the new Royal Adelaide Hospital ...

kyliedonut Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 Quick question re: ANMAC - do they email to tell you that your application/skills assessement has been passed? Or is the first thing you know about it when you receive the LOD in the mail??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
