    question to all.. so if na-credit ang previous courses/degree sa Philippines (example from 3 yrs naging 1 year na lang like the case of @Yukishih), will it still be possible to get the AU study requirements (5pts if you plan to apply under Skilled Migrant)

    I know the requirement is 2 years of study, so hindi na bapwede mag-apply ng 5 points if ever naging 1 year na lang?

    Yes showmoney is not required if you are applying for a student visa 573 (e.g. at least a 2-year course). Only an affidavit of support.

    Hi! Grabe kanina pa ako nagbabasa. isa itong forum mula sa langit! haha ninenext ko akala ko meron pa hehe
    ok ung akin sisimulan ko palang.. BSN with Masteral ako with 3yrs exp. and I am aspiring to become a RN sa Aus..
    with this forum, narealize ko "student visa" is a good stepping stone. Dati kc focused ako sa bridging program (akala ko yun lang ang tanging paraan). Sana pg sinulat ko na timeline ko sa huli VISA GRANTED din!
    So ganito yung na-pick up ko:
    I'll begin with IELTS (band score all 7).
    Then will look for a school in Queensland (may relative kc ako dun) offering courses: Bachelor of nursing (cguro may credit prior learning din ako) or Masteral course..
    Pag may offer letter na ako.. pay tuition fee (around 10k aud.. huhu)
    Then apply for student visa -> medical exam -> Visa Granted!! *hopeful*

    Naisip ko, after ko magaral (dapat swertehin ako gaya ng iba) na makapagregister agad sa APHRA at maging Aus. RN & masponsor ng working visa.. Pano kung hindi? May ibang visa ba na applicable pra maextend ang stay (maliban sa mag enrol uli ng ibang degree)? TIA :)

    @ezela if you finish at least a 2-yr bachelor degree, you will be eligible to apply for a 2-yr post-study work visa.

    welcome...
    question.. medyo di lang clear..
    are you saying you have completed BSN+MS+3 years nursing work experience in Phils?
    or mag-aaral ka pa lang ng BSN sa AU?

    i was asking kasi, kung may BSN+MS+3 years experience in Phils,
    you might just want to continue with the bridging program, which is technically the same as student visa...

    just asking..

    @lock_code2004 has a point @ezela. if only i have the experience, i'll do the bridging program din. shorter period lang ang titiisin, pwede ka nang maging RN sa OZ.

    and tingin niyo puba ung case ko may chance for PR if ever mtpos ko po bridging program for 3months then become an Aus RN tapos not employer nominated? if ever balik po ako sa pinas after ng bridging program then dito nako mag file ng PR application if hindi kopo napahaba stay ko sa Aus..

    @ezela as far as i know, you can apply for PR as long as you get the required points. so i think, you may actually do that...apply for PR after your registration.

    @iheartoz @ezela - yes it does not matter kung nasa AU or Pinas ka... basta once you have your AU Nursing Registration, and if you have the money, you can immediately apply for PR... of course as long as you satisfy the EOI 60 pts..
    - age
    - ielts
    - educ
    - work exp..

    of course, the best option to find an employer who can sponsor you for a work visa...
