Hindi po kailangan sa AHPRA ang evidence of paid employment. Sa pag apply na po ito sa ANMAC and pag lodge ng PR hahanapen as proof of your work experience and claimed points. Not necessarily ITR, kahit payslips lang, yung contract nila etc. Any proof that she is indeed paid as a full time employee.

Meanwhile, kung hindi pa po siya nagpapaassess sa AHPRA, I suggest ito po muna ang gawin. It is important though that you asked since it will be useful later on. Better keep copies of those payslips na for future requirements.

Sa letter of determination ng anmac, can you only claim kung ano yung nakasulat dun na work experience? Di ko kasi sinama ung exp ko sa ph during the anmac assessment kasi nahirapan ako kumuha ng reference. 3 yrs din yun to make a total of 8.

@dy3p Hi, yes you can only claim kung ano yung nakastate dun. If you will overclaim, magiging grounds siya for refusal. If you have time baka pwede mo siyang paassess sa ANMAC. Sayang naman yung magiging pay level mo kung sakali. Yun nga lang hahanapan ka ng references,etc for it.

dy3p · July 2017

@Cassey Hi po. Thanks for the comment. Does that mean to say na yung "pay level" mo would be based on your points upon lodging? Kung hindi ko isasama yung work experience ko sa PH 65 points lang, sayang yung 5 points. hehe Pero if its like what you said, then I guess I'll have to update ANMAC. I'm not sure yet as to weather I should resubmit the whole thing again and wait for another 10 weeks, or maybe file for an appeal

follow up:

According sa ANMAC FAQ's page:

My assessment has been completed but I need professional references assessed, how do I get this new information on my existing Letter of Determination?

You do not need to apply for a new assessment. You can ask us to assess your professional reference by emailing your assessor or [email protected]. There is a charge for this service. ANMAC only accepts payments by VISA or MasterCard.

You need to provide your original Letter of Determination to ANMAC before we can reissue it.

I guess this answers my question. TY

@Cassey hi, Yung recency of practice po ba sa aphra pag magpapaasses for bridging eh kelangan ko na iprovide yung coe ko na i was able to complete 450 hours or sa anmac na yun? I'm not sure kasi hindi ko maaccess at the moment yung part na yun sa site ng aphra. down ata. Magsstart pa lang po kasi ako, naisipko lang, habang sana kinocomplete ko yung 450 hours eh magpasa na rin ako ng docs sa aphra. Just in time siguro un after ko macomplete un 450 hours eh maissuehan na rin ako ng loe for bridging?

dval · July 2017

And sa mga nakapaghospital po ba dito sa PH, pwede na po kaya ako magrequest ng COE from the hospital kahit po probationary status pa lang ako? Balak ko po kumuha after ko mareach yung 450 hours para po sana makapag apply na sa aphra for bridging.. Thanks po sa mga ideas nyo

@dy3p Yes, pay level will be based on the years of experience that was recognized by ANMAC. Ang sabi ng staff ng ANMAC sa akin, you just need to provide your payslips, references, etc You don't need to go through the whole process anymore. So i suppose shorter waiting time.
And Yes, that's the answer you were looking for.

Cassey · July 2017

@dval Yes kailangan mo ng experience of at least 3months full time work para maapprove ka for a bridging course ng AHPRA. Kung wala kang experience, hindi ka magiging eligible for a bridging course.

dval · July 2017

@Cassey Salamat sa paglilinaw.

@Cassey Hi sorry. I've been looking and asking around regarding the pay level being based sa number of experience when it comes to ANMAC. I can't seem to find any information from the grant letter din ng friend ko. I know sa 457 they actually indicate the base pay and the guaranteed actual earnings. Isn't the hospital or state responsible for indicating your pay and on which level based on your experience and not solely ANMAC? Sorry po, kasi I'm really not sure kung isesend ko pa ba yung reference letter from my previous employer. According to ANMAC nga, kung gusto ko daw, I should submit the reference letter together with my current LOD and ung anmac form and a payment of 125 AUD. Should I proceed with this 70 points ako, if not 65 lang.

Cassey · July 2017

@dy3p What I meant to say is, if you want the hospital or your employer to pay you based on your experience, then have your work experience be recognized here in Australia. My husband had his pay level recomputed because the hospital forgot to consider his previous work experience overseas, they only looked at his experience here in Australia. Because his work experience was recognized by ANMAC, he was able to upped his pay level.

With your points, it's more than enough since there are only few applicants considering the demand for Nurses. It all depends on what your purpose is. If you have time then you can have it reassessed but if not then just go on with it.

@Cassey Gotcha! I'm on a 457 lodging EOI soon and they based my salary from my experience overseas. Salamat po!

Hi just want to ask any idea about new Bridging program of AhPRA?

missjetty · August 2017

Hi guys! May thread po ba tayo sa mga nurses n nag apply ng 189 visa Skilled Independent? Thank you

abby315 · August 2017

hello ang full time volunteer work po ba considered? I have a friend finishing this December sa conversion course in nursing

Cassey · August 2017

@abby315 With AHPRA registration, it may be considered but with ANMAC skills assessment it's a different thing. Nakalagay kasi na it needs to be a paid experience.

*ang BSN po ba satin (Phil) under Bachelor (other) or Bachelor Degree in Science, Business, or Technology?*

Overseas work exp: 4 years = 5pts

Total of 75pts.

ulan889 · September 2017

Tanong ko lang po may nakaexperience po ba sainyo mag avail ng FEE HELP for Bridging Progra para po sa PR na..

Mia · September 2017

@darence hello. Yung normal bridging na short courses lang walang additional points na maibibigay yun.

Meron lang if like 2 year bridging or conversion course ang kinuha mo which is magiging Australian BSN graduate ka na and you can claim extra 5 points kasi nag aral ka for 2 years sa Australia.

Cassey · September 2017

@darence With the partner skills just make sure na nagundergo yung partner mo ng assessment from the assessing authority here in Au before claiming points. Just like what the above post stated, walang points ang bridging. You can only get points if you have studied and completed a course or courses for 2yrs. With your experience and education history, as long as it's recognized by ANMAC then you can claim those points.
