Oi Cris!
I can understand why you are so upset after so much work! I also saw that you have already exchanged messages with Fyzzio and that you lacked documents, the good thing now is that you know what is missing! The best advice I have for you, if you have not done that yet, is to read carefully the other posts and check if the documents you have provided for each Competency (especially 1 to 4 and 8) are similar to the ones suggested. You may find that you can ‘squeeze in’ some more evidence to support your application.

Something that I've noticed, you wrote that you have 2 years of experience in musculoskeletal since graduation. The Board needs you to prove to be competent in the 3 main areas of physiotherapy. (Is your post grad. course also in musc.?) After graduation, did you have any sort of experience in neuro or cardio-respiratory? That could also be the reason why the Board keeps asking you for more evidence. About the last letter, more evidence is needed from all main areas, including musculoskeletal?

I guess I’ll translate my both thesis (under and postgrad studies) and ask my supervisors to sign and send it directly.
Absolutely, do that. Send both thesis and if they are extensive, translate the important bits(summary, introduction, conclusion, etc) and not the whole thing!


They also claimed I was lacking in patient treatment details...
Translate blank patient’s assessment\treatment forms that you used during your work experience (musc) and from your university’s last year internship ( cardioresp and neuro). It might help.

Indeed, I was in Brazil the whole time while my application was being processed; did most of my training here, too, and about 4 years of work experience. Huh, I am not aware of being the first Brazilian to get the registration; there might not be many going through this process, anyway! I am hoping and wishing you can also get it! The hardest part is definitely putting your portfolio together, oh yeah and the waiting...
Boa sorte (good luck)! I am no expert in NZ registration but feel free to contact me again if you have more doubts.
