@Cassey thank you so much.

@Cassey waahhh ok po thanks you...

LovellaEllen · May 2018

@Cassey Thanks po. I have enough experience as Anaesthesia Unit Nurse, just worried with all the change in work sponsorship and the number of PR applicants considering my points. Hopefully I will be blessed on this AU journey

@MissAussie If it's ok, balitaan mo naman ako sa result with your work application and for your batchmates. Honestly I'm worried to the point on having 2nd thoughts on leaving my current work. Ayaw ko din mag antay ng matagal sa pinas esp 65 points lang ako tapos I cant really rely on the state sponsorship. Im also closely monitoring the PR invites, 70 or 75 lang yung mka receive ng invitation as of now. Are you doing your BP in Sydney?

@drnc_13 Isa sa pinakatinitignan is yung reference letter so make sure na it’s following the format that was given by ANMAC.

Cassey · May 2018

@LovellaEllen That’s actually a good experience. I remembered my hubby’s company was looking for an Anes Nurse before but they couldn’t find one. I’ll ask him if they’re still in need of one and I’ll let you know.

LovellaEllen · May 2018

@Cassey Thank you so much

@LovellaEllen Going to a foreign country always comes with risks. Kung alam mo na gagawin mo rin siya sooner or later, bakit mo pa papatagalin. Baka pagkadecided ka na, iba na yung policies uli, so just jump in. Kung hindi ka man makakuha ng sponsorship at least nakaone step ahead ka na at may hinihintay ka. It’s totally worth it, especially for Nurses. Anyway, once you’re done with your BP just give me a buzz.

All the best!

Maam Good Day po. ask lng po sna ako may narceive ksi ako email from aphra na request for an extension of time in order to decide the application for registration. Maam bale mag apply plang po ako for bridging.. ibig sabihin po b nun my problema papers ko? slamat po

Cassey · May 2018

@breezeb Hi, not necessarily na may prob. Usually pag ganyan na yung email malapit ng lumabas yung result. Most of the applicants na nakakuha niyan got their eligibility letter after a week.

breezeb · May 2018

@Cassey

Cassey · May 2018

@breezeb No worries, all the best!

paanfsurn · May 2018

Hello. Question lang po sa mga nakagawa na before ng reference letter for anmac. Yung specific anzsco code po ba kelangan imention sa body ng letter? Paano sya imention sa letter hindi ko kasi alam paano sya umpisahan. Thanks

LovellaEllen · May 2018

Hi @jjlara!

Im scheduled to do BP this coming July at ACN Sydney, you might want to check them out. Intakes Aug 27 - Nov 9, 2018 and Sept 24 - Dec 7, 2018 are still available.

LovellaEllen · May 2018

@Cassey Thanks for you advice

You're right, sometimes you just have to take the leap and trust in Him. I'll definitely message you once my BP is almost done

paanfsurn · May 2018

@LovellaEllen hi! I’m planning to take bp din sa acn. Sana you can share your experience din with them dito ;;)

LovellaEllen · May 2018

@paanfsurn Yes, you need to include the anzsco code in the professional preference. I've sent you a sample of professional preference, hope that helps. Sure, I'll share my BP experience later when I'm almost done..

paanfsurn · May 2018

@LovellaEllen yes ive seen your message. Thank you!
Im still waiting for my LOE. Mejo matagal mag 1 month na after ko mareceived yung date extension letter. Sana makahabol ako this year sa BP. If not baka next year na.

jjlara · May 2018

@LovellaEllen Thank you so much! Dito ka na ba sa australia? gaano katagal mo natangap ang COE mo sa ACN?

LovellaEllen · May 2018

@jjhara I'm based in Singapore. I'll be in Sydney July 20. Sorry, I'm not sure what you meant by COE, is it certificate of Employment? My application was received via mail by ACN last Jan 9 and I received the offer Feb 1.

MissAussie · May 2018

@LovellaEllen @Cassey Im doing my BP here in Melbourne, how about you??

MissAussie · May 2018

@LovellaEllen could you also help me with the reference letter for ANMAC? Thank you

Cassey · June 2018

@MissAussie Been living here in Melbourne for 5yrs already.

We were once like you guys and I remember saying to others “Buti pa kayo PR na” and with God’s grace, we are now living in their shoes as well. In due time, you’ll be PR here na rin, just keep on persevering and don’t forget to pray.
