Previously, anyone can take HAAD-RN exam without doing

anything, you can schedule right away for your exam, however,
they implement a new system (October 2013) that one must
accomplished their dataflow first before you can sit for an exam.
Thus, everything seems to be complicated because this is
something new and information regarding this is scarce. In
contrast, if you have a local agency or sponsorship by an employer,
I believe they will be the one to process your dataflow, I am not
sure about this, ask your agency regarding this.
I will write everything that I have learned here from different
forums, if others have any correction please enlighten or correct
my mistake so I can edit this immediately for the satisfaction of all
newbies like me
NOTE: I am also an applicant myself so I cant answer any of your
question, if you have one just post it and lets wait for others to
answer

1. The position held and areas of practice, Hospital bed capacity
2. The date of your tenure (date from (dd/mm/yyyy ) to
(dd/mm/yyyy)
3. Must be signed by the Human Resource Department (some says
that the signature by chief nurse is enough but as a former HR
personnel, chief nurse,doctors or any administrative staff has
nothing to do with the employment of an individual but still
depends on your company, some small hospital do not have HR
department. Hence, what is important is that someone will
receive the call and verify the status of your employment once
dataflow call or confirm the authenticity of your employment)

SECTION 11 REVIEW OF APPLICATION
Check everything you have written, remember one mistake may be
fatal to your application, it may cause delay and anxiety on your
part, make sure everything is true and correct, dataflow will
verify all the information you provided so fake documents must be
carefully planned if you think of doing so. (I suggest you dont do
it but yeah were Filipinos we love recto documents)
SECTION 12 APPLICATION SUBMISSION
As written, you will not be able to amend any information or
documents you uploaded once you proceed, choose the credit card
button and get ready with your 600AED (P7000 as of this writing)
FAQ:
How long will it take for dataflow to verify all my files?
According to one member here it only took him 15 days to receive
a positive response or an approval to sit for an exam, so perhaps
as long as we upload the correct document everything will be fine.
Although it is still case to case basis and depends on the mood of
the verifiers
AGAIN, PLEASE DO CORRECT OR EDIT ANY
MISTAKES/CORRECTION HERE, to all "master" hope you can help
us newbies, thanks!!!!
