Cassey

@nursesam Yes, it can qualify for bridging. Just make sure that you have documents to support your experience.

Hi guys!!!! I tried to inquire in IHNA. And this is their reply:


Please be informed that We are completely full with the seat
allotments for the IRON program in the year 2017.



We are not considering any new applications for the Year 2017.







Also, Please be informed that We are currently awaiting for an
approval for the New IRON program in the Year 2018.



The Program schedule is expected to be extended to 6 months, and
also the course fee would vary accordingly





Thanks & Regards

6months na daw po BP next year

ishtar

If that happens, i hope they'll give us 1 year student visa with working rights. There will be low chances may umuwi and more time to look for jobs and process ANMAC after BP

ishtar

Some say the new IRON program will take place after Feb intake

KevinDavidson

@ishtar.. Hi! October 2 nman nareceive ng AHPRA ung application ko as per DHL and October 5 sila nag email sa akin...
Nag ask ka ba s school ng SCHOOL AND CHED ACCREDICATION CERTIFICATION?

[email protected] email ko. let's keep in touch. I'm also targetting FEB 2018 intakes... wala pa akong school ng definite na papasukan.

may agency ka ba or sarili lang?

KevinDavidson

what the!
6 months na BP?
Too long!
Sana ang visa na makuha eh student visa na for 1 year para may working rights.
jusko, butas na butas na bulsa mo nun after 6 months kung business visa na walang working rights and makukuha mo. huhuhuhuhuh

Cassey

@ishtar usually 2months lang ang extension from the date of completion. If it’s gonna be 6mos, I’m sure under student visa na siya so it should come with work rights.

Just be grateful na hindi siya inabolish because last year ang rumor was they’re going to abolish the bridging program.

@KevinDavidson

ishtar

@KevinDavidson i have agency. I tried scouting schools for my friend na mag DIY. Sa lonsdale naman ang sabi feb 2018 is full na daw and wont accept applicants for now lang ang sabi.

ishtar

@Cassey sana lang po student visa na and sana di sobrang taas ang itataas ng tuition. Kasi nakakalumo sa gastos

ishtar

Ask ko lang po may nakakakuha ba ng decision letter dito ng Nov or Dec?? Or Jan next year na next? Kasi long holiday sa AU

KevinDavidson

sana nga student visa na ang ibigay if matutuloi ung 6 mos.. pero ang sana hindi.. ang tagal kasi....

aong agency mo if I may know? @ishtar

Cassey

@ishtar Hindi bale investment mo naman yun, Once na nagwowork ka na as nurse dito malaki ang return.

ishtar

@KevinDavidson actually di sya agency, consultancy siya. Philman ako

ishtar

@Cassey yun na nga lang po iniisip ko po na kayang bawiin once may work at RN na tulad din ng mga kabatch ko na andyan na din sa AU.

reena_june24

KevinDavidson

Cassey

@reena_june24 Hi, nabasa ko rito sa forum, Philman daw. I’m not sure though. You can ask ishtar and KevinDavidson.

ishtar

@KevinDavidson hello! Lets hope for the best sa application natin ☺️

ishtar

Hi Miss @Cassey and everyone! I hope you guys can help with this. This is from @danya

~Hello po.

May mga tanong po sana ako regarding s pag fill up at kung saan po ipopost ang document nato together sa mga supporting documents na dapt i.attached sa application:

Section Residential address and principal place of practice.
Nalilito po ako kung anong ilalagay ko sa principal place of practice.
Dumaguete po ang home address ko po, peru sa Cebu na po ako nag work for 4
years after graduation. Tapos ngayun andito po ako s Dubai going 3 yrs next yr
june ang experience ko po dito. Pag nag NO naman po ako kung same ba ang
residential address and principal place of practice ko pinapaprovide naman ko
yung Australian principal place of practice eh hndi pa nmn ko nakapag practice sa
Australia. Big thanks po sa makatulong.

missy16

Thank you for the quick reply @Cassey. By the way may idea ba kayo if ok lang kaya to pass all other requirements then to follow na lang the english exam?

missy16

*Thanks

Cassey

@missy16 Pwede pero depende kung gaano katagal mo pa bago ipadala yung English test result. Kapag inassess at kulang madedelay yung application mo.

Cassey

@Adamritzel Dumaguete yung residential address and yung principal place of practice yung kung san ka mostly nagpractice as a Nurse. Understable na yun na hindi sa Au since international nurse ka. Pwedeng iupdate yun kapag may address ka na rito sa Au.

drnc_13

hi po, newbie here. applying for bridging sabi ng agency baka next yr na daw makapasok since this week palang ssend sa ahpra ung docs. any experience nio po? planning to study in melbourne po

kathmae20

hello po @Cassey ma'am new po aq sa thread nio just want to ask kc working po aq as an enrolled nurse dto sa singapore for almost 5yrs. now planning po aq na mgstudent sa deakin pero wala aq idea kng anu ang course n applicable sakin pra makaapply for eligibility for ahpra.. am i allowed to take their one yr conversion course?

Cassey

@kathmae20 Hi, Are you an overseas nurse and do you have any experience as a Nurse? You can email Deakin and check with them if they will allow you to get their conversion course. EN is different from RN so I’m not sure if Deakin will recognize your experience.

Cassey

@drnc_13 Medyo matagal nga ang AHPRA. May mga nagapply last August waiting for their LOE na hindi pa rin natatanggap until now.

Adamritzel

@Cassey Thank you po sa reply. Paano pag 4years experience sa pinas at 3years overseas?
