    There are Nurses who studying NVQ here, They said they applied thru Affinity and paid lots of money then you can work as carer

    Why not try in New Zealand? You will also spend money but your visa will be working visa and work as Carer if you are not yet an RN.

    That was the same advise I told to my 2 nieces but they are both RN and need to take CAP and pass their IELTS. After CAP, they can work in a hospital.

    It's unlikely to come here and take NVQ-Caregiving course and work 20 hrs limit as Carer

    Goodluck!

    If your Mom is here she may sponsor you if she can afford. You can apply direct to embassy but you need to show your evidence/requirements i.e. P500 thou more in your account, your sponsor account,letter, your accom, etc. That's what my friend did.

    CAP means Competency Assesment Program in New Zealand.It is 3 months program to take by qualified nurses there and it is required by NZ Nursing council.After taking that, they will assess your wages, assigned hospital etc. You can choose any NZ Nursing council accredited school. If you are RN, with at least 500 hrs work experience in hospital, and with 7.0 grade in IELTS, and show money in your account, then you are qualified and can apply direct to NZ embassy in Manila.

    If you are not yet RN you can still apply, visit nz embassy website in Manila, but you can work only as Caregiver. Like UK, the wages is different from working in hospital and Carehomes. I have friend there already working in carehome and niece in hospital. they said, it's also a nice place to live

    There are some agencies but applying direct to embassy is much better.

    Goodluck!
