Ashlenelouise Posted July 26, 2014 Report Share Posted July 26, 2014 I'm using this post as a little diary account - sorry if I annoy people but ... So I'm only at the very beginning of this roller coaster .. I've passed ielts for the ANMAC skills assessment ( see signature) need to resit for my visa as I need all 8s .. But will get back to that at a later date. I have even busy working behind the scenes gathering evidence for my ANMAC skills assessment .. I have collected 1- ielts certificate 2- professional reference 3- transcript from uni 4- initial registration certificate 5- practicing licence 6- passport photo 7- verification cert from Nmc - still need im planning on getting 1,2,4,5,6 certified by a justice of the peace next week I have emailed Nmc with regards to verification cert sending over. But with no response as of yet. I have also just paid now for my skills assessment $900 = £498 i just hope hope I haven't missed anything that needs certifying ... I've been reading forum posts and many pages on the ANMAC website .. So hopefully I haven't missed anything ... eeekkkkkk hopefully this will be as smooth as possible ... Hoping to have my EOI by mid October .... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
verystormy Posted July 26, 2014 Report Share Posted July 26, 2014 It all seems hectic now. But you will be surprised how quick everything happens in the end and you find yourself boarding the plane with a one way ticket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arash Posted July 27, 2014 Report Share Posted July 27, 2014 Time goes very fast. No need to worry. One day you will hear good news and be happy. Mine took almost 5 years as I was frequently rejecting by state sponsorship. More than that my IELTS was expiring and I needed to resit 3 times for it. I was going to be mad. Anyway, I have my visa now and you will definitely have it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clairej456 Posted July 27, 2014 Report Share Posted July 27, 2014 Hiya, with regards to your number 7, you need to ring the verification department and they send u a form, fill it in and send bak and they send the info straight to the places u need it sending. Think it's £34. Ps who did u get to sign your things x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashlenelouise Posted July 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2014 I am getting a justice of the peace to sign my items on the 3rd august And ahhh thanks Clairej457 I have emailed them but will ring them if I don't hear anything by Wednesday ... I shall give them a ring, is the number on the website .. ? And I know guys thank you it is very hectic but I find that gathering evidence before I had even sat my ielts as I am only 14months qualified I have a lot of the items still to hand, I just need my reference now and a passport photo - then photocopying everything tomorrow ... How did people send over their documents - by a courier or just recorded post? My my uncle has a business account with TNT and I'm pretty sure they do courier of documents I just want to make sure they get there ... Any ideas!

Now that's one sections completed and it's a case of sitting and waiting I'm going to start collecting evidence for my visa, will take twice the amount of time as I have to get my partners stuff sorted as he is coming as my defacto so it's 4 1/2 years worth of evidence to collate ...
