Hi

I am currently in the UK but at the later stages of getting my 189 PR visa. I have my ahpra application ready to post but have a few queries and although I have sent 2 emails direct to them they have not replied, so hence me asking for a bit of advice on here.

Basically I am not 100% sure where to settle in Australia (Perth or Queensland) can anyone tell me does it matter which office I send my application to as obviously when I arrive I must provide documents for full registration Can this be done at any state office or only the one my application was sent to?

Also on the form it asks if I have insurance and also a first aid certificate but obviously I have not got this as I am not over in Australia yet. Would anyone know if I should answer no and put a cover letter stating this will be provided at a later date when I arrive in Australia.

I have over 15 years experience in NHS in Scotland and have been a member of podiatry board (HCPC) here all this time so I hope things will be straight forward.

Any advice would be much appreciated!!

 

State of application won't matter, but AHPRA's head office is in Melbourne.
I would answer the questions honestly, so answer "No", and indicate that they would be obtained before commencing any work.
