Thank u very much darren-b as well for that info, i will try to phone them by Monday, i spend 6 mins this afternoon to their paid call center, and all I got was the same answer I see on their online track application..I emailed them as well after calling them as suggested by the agent, although am sure, it is a computer generated reply, but am hoping for a better reply though..thanks so much for your help...

God Bless

Iam still waiting after more than 14 weeks for the NVQ student visa, lodged last December 22, 2008. I don't know what is going on after more than 60 working days, they should actually place something on their website or not email applicants of expected time frame if they cannot finish the work on said dates. Waiting in agony, and you cannot even do something or move on while waiting, I understand they are working hard, but I wish they could do something about it, and fast.



Anyone here still waiting more than Iam?

you are not alone, i have a friend and she has been waiting five months now to get her
visa and she has been living in uk five years. im afraid the powers that be move at there own very slow pace. have faith it will come.

Iam not 100% patient since I kinda got irate at some point but I just remember what my Mom says, patience is a virtue, I guess the long wait is worth it since I got hold of the dreaded visa after almost 5 months....

To everyone waiting for the VISA results, Goodluck and always get ready with your docs and pray, it helps a LOT!

congrats dyannesky, good luck. i just wonder if u have enough grades sa ielts(7 on all areas) coz if u do- allow me to suggest u start checking applying for nmc license.
1) after getting ielts 7
2) nmc will allow u to start applying for pin number +145gbp+(online+postal)
3) docu rqmts(u could start sorting out using nmc forms 1)tor from ur uni registrar there in ph 2)at least 2 years work exp, start talking with ur current/previous employer/hospital hr&supervisor 3)prc

then u check any uk uni offering supervised placement+20 days protected study time
past months almost in all areas ng uk n mga colleges&uni nag open for overseas nurses
some sites i've had before uni of stirling(scotland), glamorgan(wales) and aru(essex), sa aru sa chelmsford around 1,400+gbp ang buong course, start ng september next intake(coz they didn't had enough applicants this january)

i wonder& i'm not sure how can u do ur nvq and integrate ur onp course, but if u can wait this past 5 mos, i can feel u got enough patience to aspire more more.

good luck, break a leg girl.

some more info re:onp, nmc decision letter lasts/valid for 2 years giving applicants chance to complete adaptation for at least 6 mos within the two years, after which you will be given uk nmc pin no., enabling you to apply and work as rn
