i am collecting all the paperwork i need to submit my nursing registration for new Zealand. Just wondering who you got to certify all your documents for your Australian application, does it need to be a solicitor?

Thanks

I had the following documents certified by a notary public - total cost was £60.

Driving Licence (both parts)
Passport
Diploma Certificate
Health & Social care Certificate
Bank Statement
Credit card
Debit card
GCSE certificate

I haven't looked at the NZ requirements but I'm sure it will tell you.

Hi
It's been 3 weeks since my application has been passes to those that deal with qualification verification.
No word as yet I'm sorry to say

genorm

Has your application been acknowledged Shaun?

Hi

I had confirmation that the application had been passed to the qualification equivalence team - by email.

I then emailed AHPRA last Sunday 7th April asking for an update and I received an email on Friday 11th stating that its still being assessed.

Bear in mind that AHPRA will be quite busy at the moment as all the yearly renewals are being processed now too x

That doesn't help candidates for whom we have offers pending registration

I'm sending mine tomorrow, is Darwin still quick for processing times?

genorm

Yes please Yvette.

Great, certifying docs tonight then to be sent tomorrow. I got in touch with AHPRA who advised to send the application (with the statement of employment missing) anyway and if they required any more information they'd be in touch.

Hi you all,
This is my first time on this site. I am trying to apply to APHRA. I have all the documents and photocopied everything but my question is about certifying.
It says it has to be done by a notary public. I have contacted several and they would charge me about £25 per document. Its rather expensive as I have about 26 documents.
Can a Solicitor certify the documents. It was good enough for our visa and much cheaper.

If anybody could help please

genorm

That is a disgraceful charge.

There should be a Notary working in your hospital, they normally charge a set fee. How much were yours Yvette?

YvetteCamille

Hi guys,

Well I just found a local guy who charged me £110 for 12 documents. If you've got 26 that may still cost a bit but I wouldn't be paying £25 per document that's outrageous! I'd ring around and compare prices.
