I'm wondering the same. I'm a new grad from VIC, registered for about 8 weeks now.

No certificate yet and calling AHPRA doesn't help - they haven't got a clue.

Anyone got their certificate yet??

I was officially registered back in December and have not received any documentation whatsoever either!

Ommmqx im in Victoria.

ive spoken to a lovely girl at APHRA who helped me out with another issue, and i asked her about the certificates. i asked her if she knew how long they were taking, and she said 'how long is a piece of string'.... she wasnt being a smart alec either- she was great to deal with- i think she was quietly voicing her own frustration! she said something about an 'external mailing house' being responsible for the certificates going out, and APHRA themselves therefore have absolutely no idea how long its taking or why its taking that long...... so i guess we just have to wait. which is bloody annoying bcos i needed it to get credits at uni!! now ive gotta do a whole lot of annoying extra stuff bcos i DONT have it.

Hi! I lodged my application about 3 weeks already, my classmate got her certificate and rego number last Friday, but I still didn't get anything yet, just wonder if AHPRA already took money from my credit card, is it means that my application should be fine? Thanks.

Got my certificate 7 weeks after officially being registered. AHPRA told me that this is the 'normal' period as all certificates are printed in and sent from Melbourne via a separate organisation.

My certificate arrived 2 months after registration, which is pretty pathetic I think.
