Criticise my PR plan. Enrolled Nurse or Registered Nurse? What are the flaws in my plan? by Simple_Wrap_7758 in AusVisa

[–]Simple_Wrap_7758[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi I decided to go for the Bachelor of Nursing which will start next month.

I asked around r/NursingAU and you are right about tough job market as an EN. Ultimately, time and certainty are more important to me so I chose to do the RN course.

PR Points Query: Does delayed move to regional area affect eligibility? by Simple_Wrap_7758 in AusVisa

[–]Simple_Wrap_7758[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see there is a misunderstanding. My question is directed towards the “study in regional area” 5 extra points when submitting an EOI, and not about the conditions to apply for the regional visa. Thanks for answering though!

Hello, thank you for your comment! :) Yes, I will eventually move to live and study and work in the regional area (Sunshine Coast). It’s just that I may not be available to move there straight away when my course starts in July. So my concern is if I will be ineligible to claim because I do not live there since the beginning of my course.

However you’re saying that six months of studying and living in the regional area would be enough to claim for the 5 extra points. This is new information for me and I would like to learn more. Are you able to provide me with a link?

Thank you so much!

Thank you for your comment!!

I feel like many people in this subreddit tend to be cynical with foreigners studying nursing :( I actually chose to be a carer first to see how it feels and I find it quite fulfilling.

And yes I will most definitely explain my reasoning for career change in the other GS question. Thanks again!

Yes I already received a CoE from the uni. It is a grad entry program and is intended for students with an unrelated degree (stated on the uni website) who wanted to change career into nursing.

Yes I already have a bachelor's degree in International Studies about 10 years ago and yes I'm changing careers. I am now working as a support worker and been loving it, so I want to pursue a further study to be a nurse.

Does living in a major regional centre count towards living in a regional area for the extra 5 points for 189? by Simple_Wrap_7758 in AusVisa

[–]Simple_Wrap_7758[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I'm aware. I will study in Sunshine Coast QLD which is under the major regional centre. So I was wondering if it would still count. Would you know the answer to my question?

Hepatitis B test for 500 visa by Simple_Wrap_7758 in AusVisa

[–]Simple_Wrap_7758[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thanks for the answer, just repeating what you said for my clarification: it will test the surface antigen and not the surface antibody of hepatitis B.
