Re: AHPRA form finally sent /TImeline will be updated
Hi guys
I have received an email from ahpra stating that they haven't received my COGS yet but I had a letter from the NMC stating it had been sent to Aus on the 9th June! (More than 2 months ago) Should I be worried or has this happened to other people? I have rung the NMC and all they have said is that it has been sent.

I have just resent requested docs via DHL the costs are piling up DHL charges 38quid for docs .i know Royal Mail is slightly cheaper but no faith in them as they lost my docs years ago never found them so I wld rather use DHL .
@James just check my bank statement my fit2wotk was £174 but I did checks for 2 countries hence the difference in price with the £83 mentioned by mgreaves.

@james have u shopped around yet for notaries.some of them charge exorbitant fees I.e 50 -60 quid a doc ......

On page 5 of the AHPRA application it asks for details of qualifications with your most recent qualification first. Do I need to put my school of nursing and the fact that I am a registered nurse in this section or is it assumed given that I am registered with the NMC and they have already sent my COGS?

I might put in an extra sheet as I qualified in 1993 and have done a lot since then.

Re: AHPRA form finally sent /TImeline will be updated
A question regarding notary signature. Both solicitors that I contacted wanted to know if they were signing that academic certificates are authentic (meaning that they would have to contact the universities). AHPRA website asks for verification that the photocopy is a true copy of the original. Which will I need? Confirmation of authenticity or just that its a genuine photocopy? I have emailed AHPRA but they never replied!

dear Steven
The notary is declaring that they have seen the original and you have identified yourself they have checked your ID AND HE/SHE IS happy that you indeed the holder of the certificates.Basically you would given them credible identification to satisfy the notary to put their seal on the copies of the original docs.hope it helps

I would review the form and list all the requested evidence needed and start puttting the together and get some docs notarised and you could look at the info tht university has to send and ask uni to send as AHPARH can create a file apparently thy do get random info from applicants before original app is submitted just a suggestion.GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR TEST

Re: AHPRA form finally sent /TImeline will be updated
Happy New Year everyone! I have been granted my permanent residence. Very happy, just 1 issue. I have to appear to AHPRA by April to get on the register. However, I won't be able to make it until a later date. Does anyone know if I can extend it further with exceptional circumstances or do I need to re-apply? Thanks in advance.

wc112, we had a similar issue, we had to attend by September 2016 for AHPRA and also enter Australia December 2016. Our plans didn't have us in Australia though until at least December 2016. We therefore had to fly in to Australia soley to activate the visa and finalise AHPRA registration, then fly back out to Asia.
I did ask around if you could defer AHPRA but didn't get a reply.

Hi All, sorry for the lack of replies, we've been backpacking Asia, NZ and Aus for the past 8 months! We have been in Sydney for the past month and now found somewhere to live so the job hunt has now started for us both.

Re: AHPRA form finally sent /TImeline will be updated
As you say I'd give them a call, only a few things are time dependant, you may be able to just redo your COGS and police checks or something rather than a full reapply. There is no need for them to receive CV, university transcripts etc again.
