The most difficult and annoying part of this whole process, is the 'getting started' part! So many forms to fill, info to get from somewhere (Finding out where is somewhere..), document certification, document certification, document certification.... See what I'm getting at? Well I am happy to say that after a few months of struggling, that I am well on my way. I have submitted my application, a stack of almost the size of those thick old school bibles, for Nursing Accreditation to AHPRA. For me, dealing with AHPRA, wasn't a hassle at all. Once they received the documents, they mailed me immediately to inform me. It was the gathering of all the documents that made me crazy. AHPRA specifies exactly what they want and how they want it, which at least added some structure to the whole process. Part of the application requires you to have SANC send a certificate of good standing, sort of proof that you are registered, directly to AHPRA. I am in the process of getting this done. So even though I've paid the R1500 to SANC to do this, and even though I've applied for this to be done, in November 2014, it still hasn't been done. I phoned the person in charge of this, and he assured me that it will be done this week. So finger crossed...
We're at this step, but only to add my skills to my husband's visa application. I've scoured SANC's website but found no clues - how do you get the ball rolling?
