Hi

I am a newly qualified Physio from the UK and am currently awaiting immigration into Canada.
Some advice for becoming a physio in canada is patience!!!

You first have to apply to the Canadian Alliance Physio regulators who assess your degree. I have done this and because no one from my University has ever applied it takes 22 weeks for them to give you the answer whether you can sit the exams in the first place!!!!! Costs $750 as well.

Then if they say yes this summer I will have to write the national exams which are done only a few times a year with the last deadline to apply end of the summer. therefore i might not even get to do the exams this year!!!!

Then it takes then a few months to give u the results once u finish them.
Believe me this is the toughest situation and most stressful, more so than my degree as it requires waiting a long time and relying on people. plus the exams combined are near $2000.

So advice for any new grad like me from the UK, think long about it!!! as i am nowhere near in march, and i have been in contact with the alliance since december!! Good luck and any questions just ask as i am going through it at the minute
