Nurses and midwives in clinical practice
Enrolled nurses, registered nurses and midwives will
fulfil the recency of practice requirements if they can
demonstrate one or more of the following:
• completion of a minimum of 450 hours of practice
within the past five years
• successful completion of a program or assessment
approved by the NMBA
• successful completion of a period of supervised
practice approved by the NMBA.
There is a criteria for applying general license by having 450 working hours in the last 5 years. You can still apply for it if you fulfill the criteria. Please take a look of the details in AHPRA and be reminded that the working hours are deducting when time goes on. On the other hand, there is another type of license call non-practicing license. But I believe there is no one having it as it is a question for apply ANMAC and DIBP afterwards.
I've successfully applied the general license without doing any nursing work for around 1.5 years. You may calculate your working hours first.

Yes, you meet the criteria of Recency of Practice if you have been working for more than 3 months full time nurse in the past 5 years at the time when you apply the nursing licence with AHPRA.
My wife being FTM for more than 5 years before. Therefore she failed the criteria about Recency of Practice when we applied the nursing licence in AHPRA. Now she is doing part-time nurse in order to full-fill the 450 hours of clinical practice. After it, we need to apply it again.
請問各位拎左牌而又未過澳洲做RN,
你地renew licence 時, 點答呢條問題:
'During your preceding period of registration, have you practised in accordance with the requirements of the NMBA's Professional indemnity insurance (PII) arrangements registration standard when practising the profession in Australia ? '
