San po s Middle East? Andito po kami s Abu Dhabi meron AF dito.

 

[jomsjoms03]

I don't think there would be a problem just in case magdecide kayu to work overseas, just stay updated with your application.

Me and Kasing are working here in abu dhabi for preparation din sa Quebec migration.
Meron naman french schools dito sa abu dhabi and dubai. You can avail also the online course of AF Cebu. =)

 

[jomsjoms03]

pro wla sn umaalis Kung ganun pla ang case pro bakit marami parin ang nde nag stay dito sa Quebec?

Napakaselan ng topic na ito. lol.
Based sa mga tread na nabasa ko, yes it risky but it is possible.

Remember guys na may may responsibility ang QSW applicants sa Quebec since ito ang sponsoring province nila. One should try their very best to adapt and settle there. However, just in case one has exhausted all the means but he failed, then he can move to another province since as per the section 6 of Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, Canadian PR Visa Holder has the mobility rights.

Under the Mobility Rights: "Every citizen of Canada and every person who has the status of a permanent resident of Canada has the right:to move to, and take up residence in, any province, and to pursue the gaining of a livelihood in any province"

Take some time also to read this thread: http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/csq-approved-can-i-move-to-toronto-right-after-landing-in-quebec-t51450.0.html

For me the idea of shifting to another province has always been a risky move. It could backfire later on. However if one will do this, he must know how to calculate risk and collect hard evidences that he tried to settle in Quebec but he failed then found an opportunity in another province.

Your call guys. Risk on or risk off? =)

Hi starboy, sige magbigay ako ng overview ng work condition ng mga nurses dito para nadin sa iba na may balak pumunta sa abu dhabi. Ito po ay applicable lang sa abu dhabi, since iba ang salary scale sa dubai at iba pang emirates ng UAE. Multiply nyu nalang po lahat ng number na mention ko sa average exchange rate sa peso na 11.80 php.

Generally, ung mga locals dito ay edukado na so nakakaintindi at nakakapagsalita ng english. Pero meron padin arabic lang like un mga matatanda na tlaga, saka un sobrang bata. Di required magsuot ng abaya dito esp if di naman muslim. In our facility, behave naman ang mga patients, pero meron padin maloloko esp un mga kabataan. Kaya ayun joke time nangyayari. Kapag bastos na, ah ibang usapan na un. Tawag na ng security. hehehe.

Sa leisure naman, meron beaches dito may libre lang, meron din may bayad. Meron din fishing spot libre lang din. Malls, parks, zoo meron din dito. Un lang pag ang temp ay umaabot na ng 50 degrees, usually nasa bahay nalang un mga tao. May mga pasyalan din dito like dun sa dubai, at sa abu dhabi naman nanjan un ferrari world at iba pa.

In terms of salary, private facilities usually give 5,000 - 8,000 aed. But still depende padin sa specialty like for example, un OR Nurse na barkada ko nakakuha ng offer sa isang private hospital ng 8,500 and un isa naman sa endoscopy 9,000. Excluding po overtime jan. Government facilities salary scale on the other hand, starts from 10,400 aed for single, and roughly 13,000 for married. Provided in cash out lahat ng allowances like housing and transportation. This is the salary offer of SEHA Facilities (Hospital, Clinics, Occupational, and school). Kung facilities naman under ng Oil and Gas like ADNOC, ADCO, and Zayed Military Hospital. Mas mataas pa jan ang offer nila like Zayed Military Hospital offers salary of 16,000 aed all in.

Kung sa cost of living naman ang paguusapan, kayu na bahala magcompare. 5 kg of jasmine rice dito nagaaverage of 20 aed. 1 kg na manok naman if frozen nasa 12 aed and if fresh nasa 15 aed. Bus fare, 2 aed kada sakay kahit san sa city na magtravel. If punta naman sa Dubai 25 aed ang bus fare, around 2 hours travel time.

Sa room naman, mejo mahal dito. 1 room usually starts at 2,000 aed per month. If magbedspace naman starts from 600 aed per month. Partition naman (kahati ng isang room) starts from 1,400 aed.

If gusto naman ng kotse, un mga sedan type na brand new like toyota yaris at nissan sunny or tida or altima starts from 40k to 50k aed depende padin sa year model. If second hand naman, makakita ka ng around 20k. Un license lang mejo mahal dito. =)

Sa taxes, wala tax dito sa bilihin at income. usually pag nagcheck in lang sa hotel meron around 16% city tax.

About sa health insurance, provided na ng company yan.

Yan po ang masshare ko sa mga may intention na magtry dito sa abu dhabi. If may gusto kayu iclarify, tanung nyu lang dito. Sagutin ko if kaya. =) God bless and Best of luck! =)

Thanks jomsjoms03 for a very helpful info,,,di naman pala nagkakalayo ang cost of living dito sa saudi at abu dhabi,,,only the flat rent lang ang malaki ang difference,,,by the way,,pwede po ba ask ng agencies in Philippines that hire nurses for abu dhabi? Or mas ok po ba na mag visit visa jan sa abu dhabi to find an employer? Meron po bang family visa so as to bring wife and kids?thanks a lot

 

[starboy77]

almost a year na din ako dito....mas marami ang umalis Kesa sa nag stay dito at dun sa mga nag stay dito e patuloy prin sila umaasa na makakapasa...nde lng sa pag pasa ng RN exam matatapos ang paghihirap mo kc useless lng exam mo kahit naipasa mo na kc Kung nde mo parin naipapasa ang fluency sa French exam mo e wla din sya saysay.....Kung Sakali makapasa ka sa RN exam nila dito e meron ka nman pwede maaplyan na hospital.....ihahire ka nila pro bigyan ka lng nila 3 yrs pra maipasa mo yung French exam den after 3 yrs babalikan ka nila pra itsek Kung pumasa kn kc Kung hindi edi bye-bye na....kahit ikaw ang pinaka magaling na nurse sa hospital e wlang saysay lhat yun Kung wla ka French...tatanggalin ka nila tlga....

Guys I think RN registration in Canada is having changes,,,they will have NNAS(National Nursing Assessment Service) this August 2014 to assess our credentials,,,No need to apply directly to each provinces,,,and I think the exam in Canada will be NCLEX-RN via pearson vue starting 2015 no more CRNE, so we can take it anywhere if we have a positive credential assessment by NNAS but sad to say Quebec is not included they will still have their own rules for RN registration...any additional info by seniors will be appreciated,,,thanks

tama ka starboy77... By next year nga NCLEX-RN via Pearson na nga ang mag conduct ng exam....kaya for those na pasado na sa NCLEx-RN swerte nyo kc alam ko nde nyo kailangang umulit pa ng exam...ang alam ko yung magbibigay lng ng exam ang maiba pro yung procedures like sa CNO e ganun parin...sayang nga lng at nde kasama ang Quebec dyan....

Tama. Pero mas mura padin talaga sa Saudi. Si misis jan nagwork dati sa riyadh. Pagdating nya dito. Namamahalan siya sa lahat ng bilihin. Lol.

Meron family visa dito so you can get your kids and your wife.

Kung ako, much better if magvisit kanalang para makapili kadin ng employer. Tapos mas mabilis ang processing di katulad kapag pinas ka nanggaling. If magvisit ka make sure na complete ang docs mo para wala hassle.

I heard that one also. Pero sure na ba na accepted un NCLEX kahit na natake before 2015? I passed the exam 2008 pa.

Maeexpire na ang VT license ko this March 2015. The renewal is not possible unless I already have SSN. Ang concern ko ngaun eh accept padin kaya ng Canadian Board of Nursing un? Kahit paso ang license?
