NURSES: What you need to know

Cassey · July 2018

@mondj3120 Yes, si hubby ang nurse. RPh ako, hehe Mas magiging less complicated kapag married na kayo prior to going here. It’ll be easier for you kasi continuous yung pagstay niyo rito at di mo na kailangan pang umuwi tapos lodge for another visa na kasama mo na siya. Marami ka pa namang oras. Just like what I have told you, mabilis lang kapag Deakin. Yung visa namin was approved one day after lodging it onshore. If you decide not to get married yet, just make sure to declare him in all your application.

Noted po miss @cassey

however, i should change my status in my passport and other docs and ids right? Wow long process pa pala

Cassey · July 2018

@mondj3120 Hindi kailangan na lahat ng IDs papapalitan. You have the choice to leave it as it is. With the passport, you can inform them later on about your status when you’ll be applying for a new one. Yung friend ko lately lang siya nagpapalit ng surname after few years of being married. Wala namang naging prob. Just keep a copy of your marriage cert with you para handy kapag kakailanganin mo.

Think it through kasi at the end of the day, ikaw yung pinakamaaapektuhan. Isipin mo kung ano ba yung pinakapurpose mo.

@Cassey yes merong phone number and address. Di lang nila provide ang email and website sa letterhead nila.

Cassey · July 2018

@paanfsurn I’m not sure how particular they are but I guess as long as may contact number silang matatawagan, it’ll be sufficient. Hindi ba pwedeng paadd yun sa company?

@diannaC depende sa school kung tatanggapin ka kasi mahirap naman mgclinical placement if pregnant. But I had a classmate na 3months pregnant when we started sa bridiging so 6months na sya nung ntapos kmi and wala naman naging problema sa school and hospital.

paanfsurn · July 2018

@Cassey hindi daw sila nag lalagagay kasi lahat ng papers nila printed na with letterhead. Mejo mahirap kausap mga nasa government hospital

Cassey · July 2018

@paanfsurn Ahh i see, sabagay ganun nga pag govt hosp. May phone number naman so I guess, it’s already sufficient.

aj.skywalker · July 2018

Hi po, ask ko lang po, ano po kaya magandang course kunin sa Australia if mag sstudent visa po ako? RN na po ako sa Australia, nakapag bridging na po ako kaso po 65 points lang po ako sa 189, nakapagpasa na po ako ng EOI kaso mukhang matagalan pa po, ang gawin ko po sana, mag student visa po ako dun then work part time as RN then eventually makahanap na din ng mag sponsor sakin.

Ano po kaya magandang course(certificate/diploma) na magagamit ko pa din po sa nursing profession po natin?

Thank you po.

LovellaEllen · July 2018

@aj.skywalker pareho po tayo. I only have 65 pts. Only difference is just starting my BP this month sa ACN. Based on my few readings, few of them kumuha ng Leadership and Management.. Yan din plan ko after BP incase hindi maka kuha ng sponsorship.. Better kasi if onshore ka while job hunting for work sponsorship. Hay nko nakaka stress yung changes sa immigration, hope we could still get a TSS/482 sponsorship..

Incase may better na course for student VISA after registration, kindly share with us po..

cucci · July 2018

@aj.skywalker I can feel your frustration with the waiting for invitation for PR... medyo wait and see ata kasi ang position ng health care industry dahil sa mga changes sa medicare. Di ko masyadong grasp ang nangyayari pero something to do with how insurance companies are shrinking on medical insurance coverage... shrinking coverage means fewer patients going to hospitals... something like that.

LovellaEllen · July 2018

@cucci Any suggestions po on what course to take after registration just to get student VISA and be onshore while looking for work sponsorship?

cucci · July 2018

@LovellaEllen Sorry, I have no idea about that... a few months ago I was also looking into some courses na related sa nursing pero nalula ako sa tuition at malayo pa sa current work ko ang mga uni na nag-o-offer.

LovellaEllen · July 2018

@cucci noted po. Thank you

Marie · July 2018

@cucci,
hindi po shrinking med coverage. More year 12 AU grads are somehow considering taking nursing courses and other health professions. Coupled with influx of international students who are also taking these courses. Sa pagkaka alam po, they are now prioritising those onshore than offshore.

and another thing to consider is that it is better to concentrate your applications on regional areas rather than those in cities. Health professionals are badly needed in regional areas

LovellaEllen · July 2018

@Marie Noted po, will focus on regional areas, hay nako the way everything is heading now, in a few year/s or maybe few months, zero chances na tayo except cguro if outstanding yung resume/experience mo at galing ka perhaps ng ibang 1st world country din.. Hopefully may time pa, I'm really worried regarding all the changes in Immigration..

dy3p · July 2018

@aj.skywalker Kung RN kana dito, why dont you try and look for a hospital na magssponsor sayo? 482 that is. That way, you can work for a year or two then plus points yun sa points tested. May iba din way yung 186 which is yung facility mo magssponsor sayo after that period. Sa mga regional nga lang most of the sponsorships, but hey, if it works. Why not.

Na max mo naba yung points mo pwede makuha sa english test (IELTS, PTE)?

Marie · July 2018

@aj.skywalker,
RN currently where? If you are in AU, as @dy3p mentioned, look for an employer na mag-sponsor. And correct din sya, na mostly ay nasa regional ang nagbibigay ng sponsorship, here in QLD, there is a hospital(s) in Brisbane who sponsored some students who graduated in QUT

purla18 · July 2018

@Cassey hahaha super girl, patience is a virtue talaga! di nman ako affected kahit alam ko nag increase na to 65 kasi kahit naman 65 pa ang minimum points to apply, lately 70 at 75 ang binibigyan nila kaya 70 talaga ang aim ko. lol! Anyways, all the best satin lahat na waiting!

LovellaEllen · July 2018

@purla18 haha this is soo true.. parang since dec2017 pa lang 70 above na accross all profession yung nakareceive ng invitation.. God Bless to us all

Cassey · July 2018

@aj.skywalker Occupational Safety is another course that you can look into. Try to get a course na hindi masydong expensive. Submit resume to Agencies as well like Sugarman, etc.

drnc_13 · July 2018

hi po I’m currently on iron here in perth po. I was thinking po na magstudent visa after. eh sabi po ng friend ko pag student visa daw di pwede mag apply ng PR? tama po ba? kailangan po ba tapusin ung student visa bago magapply for pr or pwd while on student visa? thanks po.

batman · July 2018

@drnc_13 if you met the requirements and points for PR visa bakit ka pa gagatos for student visa. To answer you question, even if you are on student visa pede ka pa din apply the PR visa. magka iba nman yun. at you can apply on shore or offshore for PR visa.

drnc_13 · July 2018

@batman ah ok thanks po 60 points lang po kasi ako

cheng1003 · July 2018

@Cassey nasend na po lahat ng documents ko. Narecve na rin dun nkita q sa tracking. My magmemessage po ba sa akin about sa mga documents ko kung tama ang mga naipasa q? Usually gaano ktagal ang processing nun bago aq makareceive na message nla? Thanks

Cassey · July 2018

@cheng1003Yeah, they’ll send an acknowledgment email. It may take a day or few days.

Cassey · July 2018

@drnc_13 Definitely pwede kang magapply ng PR, just be careful though in the transition. Huwag basta basta magwiwithdraw or cancel because it may leave you unlawful.

Cassey · July 2018

@purla18 Good on you, i hope yung iba makahanap din ng way/s to increase their points.

kymme · July 2018

@purla18 ours was the 4 working days after na submit ng uni yung lost of graduates to ahpra. i already submitted all my docs for rego a month before that.
