Unfortunately, it cannot land her RN job in the UK. One of the requirements for RN in the UK is IELTS overall band of 7. So overall band 6 cannot get her registered and practice in UK.

Remember that saying that "good things are worth waiting for".

Coming into the country is not the problem it's how you come. Suppose your wife comes in as a carer, you will have to Pay for visa fees. Then she would have to do those things she's running away from when she gets to the UK to later work as a nurse. Then she has to pay for the whole family again to change visa status.

Thank you. We’re hoping for the best.
Coming in as a carer is not worth it when you can come in as a professional. Of course she will be working as a senior carer when before she passes her OSCE, but at least she doesn't have to worry about IELTS or what have you. She transitions straight to a RN when she passes her OSCE.

I personally won't recommend coming in as a carer. CBT is easy to pass and she can take IELTS or OET. If she can pass nursing council exam to become a nurse, then she has what it takes to be a UK registered nurse. She just has to believe in herself. Support her through her nursing journey not carer journey.

I need you to understand me very well.

1. For her to get a job as a Healthcare Assistant in the UK, she doesn't need to write IELTS. Unless she plans to become a registered nurse in the UK, then she needs IELTS for UKVI.

2. For her to apply for a Visa to move to the UK, she needs IELTS for UKVI or ECCTIS (NARIC) evaluation of Bachelors degree.

3. She cannot apply for Visa (Skilled worker or Health and Care) unless she has a job in the UK.

4. There is no need rushing her to do the IELTS. Let her be calm and take her time to study. 85k no be joke. She needs to be adequately prepared before going for it

I hope that helps.

IELTS is still required for Visa Application so she would still need to write it. However, she can apply for Health care assistant and Nursing assistant jobs pending the time she will become a UK registered Nurse.

Sure is a feasible option she is well over qualified for carer job self

jum33:

Let her follow the nursing route by concentrating on the ielts and other exams ,she will earn more and get more job satisfaction than following the career route .Carer are for those that are not the health line and just starting to build career out of it
