Hi,
to Alice: I have heard that they will notify you if they haven't received the validation letters, usually via phone call or email, but don't know, how much time they'll let pass in the meantime. Apparantly, they also proceed applications straight to the assessors, if everything is complete, however, they will definitely let you know, if your application is incomplete. So, I wouldn't worry. Once your application is complete, it apparently only takes a few weeks. .. But then, it's Christmas season and New Zealand's clocks run very slow at this time of year...

to Emad: Thanks for sharing your opinion. Let me share mine: The NZ Physio Board quite happily communicates via Email. I received several from them, as in answering my questions, sending me information etc.. However, you cannot send your application in that way, and I also don't know any other Physiotherapy Authority that would let you do this. Come on, they just have really high standards and are obviously concerned with fraud. Good on them. Just run with it, we all had to do it and I'm glad that this way, they might keep out the nasty ones ....

Happy New Year,
cheers,
Fyzzio
