    @bunwich29 Sa tingin ko naman pwede. Check the definition of recency of practice. If you wanna make sure, just have your papers be assessed by AHPRA.

    Hi po,,,I need some opinion po sana. I have 7 years hospital experience:
    4 years staff nurse po sa Saudi
    3 years as Pediatric Post Cardiac Surgery Intensive Care Unit Nurse (currently working here, overseas pa din)
    I think qualified nman po ata ako for BP, kaso I have tried na IELTS but hirap po talaga ako to get 7 sa Writing, tried few times na din. Any good option po which is better and easier english test for me to take to be able to qualify para sa BP? Struggling po talaga writing to be honest. Thanks po sa mag rerespond sa post ko. God bless po!

    @cheezy_pops meron naman na iinvite na 55+5 pero it depends talaga sa cycle ng invitations minsan kasi katulad ngayon ang tataas ng points ng nagaapply. Minsan naman dumadating sa point na kahit mababa na iinvite parin. Best is to improve your points so that you have higher chances of being invited.

    @MissAussie yes you can start with vaccinations, then australian police check kasi it takes a month pa bago dumating-sinisend kasi thru post ang result, then gather mu lng yung usual requirements like TOR,RLE,diploma, etc. it's on their website naman.
