PR ako dito sa WA. ano ang options na makuha ko yung sister ko dito- mas magandang tanong ay kung paano ko ba sya makukuha dito para maging PR din sya... mas ok kasi benefits ng PR kesa international student.

Wtf!! Ielts will still be required by aphra and anmac later on.. Your nursing program if it is even that sounds super fishy!!!
Is that accredited by aphra??
That is what i am afraid of in these type of forums people who are advertising their services but cant be checked if it is legit or not.. Walang check and balance.
To start.. Just go the aphra or anmac websites. Yan ang regulatory bodies ng nursing here. Everything is there..;)

That's a lot of money, considering how easy the application is. Good thing I lodged my application on my own.

Also, depends on whether complete ang requirements uploaded and medicals mo hindi referred to their Medical Officer. I've read in this forum somewhere na yung iba, visa grant agad na hindi na nila nakikilala CO.
Goodluck!

Hindi po, pero I'm on a 457 din tulad niyo. Mabilis lang ang processing ng 457 generally. Kaso, hindi ko masasagot regarding bridging program eh.
Hopefully meron dito makapag-input, makasagot ng tanong niyo.

456 is business short term, while 457 is business long term. Ilang months po validity ng 456? Yung 457 kasi is 4 years typically. Sa pagkakaintindi ko, dun pa lang mag-iiba na health requirements. Also, nung 456 ka, hindi ka pa nurse nun, ano po? In 457, you will be workingg na kumbaga as a RN in a health institution.
If may CO ka na, you can email your CO directly para ma-clarify. If wala pa, pwede ka pa rin mag email sa DIAC. May email yan posted somewhere in the webiste. Pero yun nga, mabilis lang 457 as soon as matapos na medicals, as long as wala naman major health problems and andyan lahat ng documents.
Goodluck!

my opinion, kung may 4 yrs work exp ka nmn as nurse, bkt di ka mag bridging or conversion program..
if your ultimate objective is to get a work visa or PR visa after, then studying aged care course might not be the best option... wala ang aged care sa SOL/CSOL, so mahirap ma-sponsor ng employer or hindi pwedeng mag apply ng PR visa...
read from page 1 of this thread... paulit ulit ang sinasabi nila..
