    Hello everyone. I've already completed my bridging program and is now registered as a nurse in Australia. Now, I'm back in the Phils kasi nag expire na ang visa ko. Ngayon, gusto ko ng bumalik ng Australia to look for jobs. Ano ba ang recommended na visa type? Plan ko mag short stay business visa (456). Ano ba kelangan ibigay na proof sa DIAC for 456?

    Medyo mahirap na ngayon maghanap ng work kasi kalaban ang ibang nationalities like indians tsaka medyo marami na rin ang locals na nag-take ng nursing course. 4 months ang grant na visa sa akin.

    @li_i_ren hi po.. may tanong lang po sana regarding bridging visa.. valid po siya for 3 mos right then after exit ka dapat? may sinasabi po kasi yung agency na valid daw siya for 1 year, meaning after exit pwede pabalik-balik so long na 3 mos max lang ang stay. Problem is wala naman po ako nababasa na ganun sa DIAC

    I believe you can apply for a Permanent Residence Visa (independent 189 or State sponsored 190)...

    Since you are already a reqistered nurse in Au, maybe you dont need to have your skilled assessed (please verify this), and i assume you already have your IELTS..

    Check your EOI points first, if you have more than 60pts... then you are good to go..
    just submit your EOI (Skillselect), and then wait for the visa invitation..

    i don't know if the length of the visa is enough time to look for a job.. kasi when i applied i was still working in new zealand... it did take me almost 4 months to get a job considering i have 7-8 years experience and 3 of that in new zealand. so do give yourself enough time to look for a job.

    Di ba ang tourist di puede? Try mo apply sa healthscope. Sayang naman. Alam natatakot na din ako kasi mag uumpisa pa lang ako tapos ayan humihirap na pala maghanap ng work/sponsor.

    @zyahoo i don't think tourists are allowed to work. student visa yes..tourist no. diba tapos ka na mag bridging and you have a current APHRA license? what you do is keep applying to different regional/ city hospitals.. even private ones. just google them. make sure you have a cover letter saying that you have a current license.
    most hospital can sponsor.. all they need to give you is a work offer naman eh. but you must state you have the registration already kasi if you don't have a cover letter..they won't bother putting you on the shortlist for interview.
    like me..i didn't leave nz nor my job until i had my contract/ visa.. and i specified when i wanted to start and not the hospital.. that way i was able to prepare properly my resignation kasi 1 month notice eh, buy tickets, sort out our household items and also had 1 month time off:D
    kasi ang 457 dapat you are outside of australia.. if you are a tourist and in australia..they still can't grant you that.. read that sa 457 visa. so keep applying, took me almost 4 months before someone shortlisted me for interviews..some applications nga i have forgotten that i applied. my end date kasi yung mga listings for almost about a month, so they won't start calling people for interview until the listing closes. then after it closes may mga 2 weeks pa sila na deliberation kung sino they will interview.. so parang sobrang tagal diba?
    then if di ka naman talaga qualified... they will send email saying you weren't shortlisted like for example talagang far out yung experience mu sa job you applied for.
    better to stay sa pinas and apply from their as long as you have the license.. that way if let's say queensland then regional hospital.. some offer relocation package.. eh may pamasahe kana sa airplane! hehehehe!
    good luck..have patience. it is harder to apply for a job here under a tourist visa kasi you are spending in aud and not earning then no assurance pa when you will be shortlisted.
    think about it..:)

    @chantelle have not seen a single filipino physical therapist in ozzie.. hmmm...i will post the link and open it.. it's a 3 part registration.
    1. is initial assessment of your papers
    2. written exams
    3. clinical exams

    ... so many that's why i have not seen a single physiotherapist in oz...the first one is the physio council itself and the 2nd one APHRA .. the regulatory body for all medical professionals in oz.
