fossda Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Australian mental health nursing college .... In the wrong order maybe... Icant help you on the ANMH? Thing as I've not heard of it. We have gone state sponsored on a 176 visa so we are tied to Victoria for 2 years but not to an employer ( mainly because we are going on me being a nurse and i didn't want to work full time straight away). I took IELTS first - 7 and over in each section, academic. Then applied to ANMC now ANMAC for skills assessment. Then AHPRA. Then state sponsorship then visa. Phew !! Ours took a long time as we had to wait for me to do a year at over 20 hrs a week to satisfy DIAC criteria ( I had spent a while working PT 19 hrs a week to fit in childcare!! Other people get registration first, some manage to get around IELTs by getting evidence of education in English. It also depends if you are going on a 457 temp visa or ENS as you only need AHPRA reg and not the skills assessment with ANMC. I'm really sorry if thIs is a bit incoherent Too much wine and not enough sleep. Am sure someone else will be along soon to help out Good luck Rachel x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ali Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 You'll need to apply to the ANMC for a skills assessment - the college has nothing to do with having your skills assessed for the visa. Credentialing is something that he can do after he arrives - he won't need it to get either a visa or a job. http://www.anmc.org.au/?event=-1&query=website/International Section Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest asaandanirish Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 thanx alot... been looking into which visa to apply for , i think we have been suggested 457 by the employer but also see the 121 as perhaps appropriate. do both of these need to skills assessed? and i think both of these visas state you dont have to have the ilets test if you can proove uk passport and english language is first language spoken through a letter from the uni. only reason he is trying to avoid the language tests is that he is dyslexic and quite severly and would be really really hard for him to pass it. thank you for any help given!
