Hiya!
Just wondering if anyone has applyed to Qld to register. If so how long did it take for them to get back intouch with you?
I wanted to apply before we moved but we only have 9 weeks before we fly.
Do I have enough time?

Do you have an address you can use in Australia? If so, use that. If not, then probably not as it might not be processed in time.

Hiya!
for the reply!
I have a friends address I can use! Thinks I'll do that!

My husband is a UK trained Primary school teacher and we moved to Australia last year. It took 5 months to get his qualifications recognised by the Queensland College of Teachers so I wouldn't delay in submitting your paperwork any longer. Hopefully it will be quicker for you!

OMG!!!
Better get it in the post asap!
Cheers!

Hello all

I must have been more lucky - mine took about 5 weeks, I did give QCT a couple of calls along the way and they were very helpful and happy to get it through as quickly as they could! I'm UK trained secondary and I sent it in last October.

I've just had everything certified except the kitchen sink! and it's all ready to put in the post tomorrow.
How long did you leave it before you started to phone??

I actually only gave them a week, then phoned to check that they had received everything and then asked about the timeline. I was already here, so I did explain that I really needed the registration as soon as possible. They actually needed one more document from me and told me that there was a chance it could be processed within about three weeks if they received it, so I got it sent and phoned back after three weeks to gently hassle them again and it was almost done - received it the following week.

They were really helpful and quite happy to speak to me about it. I would definitely give them a call if only just to see what current processing times are.
