CBT, OSCE and the NMC decision sit inside a four-step UK nurse registration, with the visa documentation that goes around it
NMC registration is sequential. Self-assessment first. CBT (Computer-Based Test) booked online and sat at a Pearson VUE centre. Then OSCE (Objective Structured Clinical Examination), taken in the UK after arrival. Then the NMC decision. We ready the documents each leg relies on, here in India.
Your Situation
How SiZA helps nmc registration for indian nurses: cbt, osce, decision
Two clocks tick on a UK nurse case. The NMC clock covers self-assessment, CBT, OSCE and the registration decision. The visa clock covers Certificate of Sponsorship, Skilled Worker visa and arrival. Neither will move ahead of the home-side documentation.
We prepare the documentation that both clocks depend on. INC and state nursing council Good Standing requests go in within hours of scans being received. Degree apostille progresses through State HRD where the receiving authority asks for it. IELTS Academic or OET is the candidate’s to sit. The Skilled Worker visa application rests on the Certificate of Sponsorship from the UK employer, plus the apostilled academic and council evidence.
NMC decisions are the council’s; nothing we do influences them. The CBT and OSCE outcomes are the candidate’s. Our piece is the document evidence each step requires, in the form the NMC and UKVI expect.
Common Situations
Real situations we run for this audience
NMC self-assessment evidence pack
Before CBT, the NMC self-assessment establishes the candidate’s eligibility. The pack includes qualification evidence, council registration, English-language proof, and Good Standing letters. The work done in India is the apostilled academic and council documents, plus INC and state council Good Standing requests.
CBT (Computer-Based Test) at Pearson VUE
CBT is booked online and taken at a Pearson VUE centre, in India or anywhere globally. The candidate books and sits the test. We prepare the eligibility documents the booking relies on.
OSCE (Objective Structured Clinical Examination) sat in the UK
OSCE is sat at an approved UK test centre after arrival. The candidate travels on the Skilled Worker visa, takes OSCE, and the NMC issues the registration decision after a pass. We are no part of OSCE preparation or scheduling.
Skilled Worker visa with Certificate of Sponsorship
A UK employer (NHS Trust, private hospital, care provider) issues a Certificate of Sponsorship (CoS) under its Sponsor Licence. The Skilled Worker visa application rests on the CoS plus apostilled academic and council evidence, English-language proof, and tuberculosis screening at an IOM-approved centre in India.

Country And Process Map
What we do in India, country by country
Notary where needed; State HRD on the degree where the receiving authority requires; MEA Apostille on the academic and council documents.
The UK does not generally require embassy attestation post-Hague accession. Apostille suffices for most evidence.
How SiZA handles this work
- •Opens INC and state council Good Standing requests on day one
- •Apostille on the degree, marksheet and council registration goes on the moment State HRD comes back
- •IELTS or OET coordination through the candidate; we do not book the test
- •TB screening referrals to IOM-approved centres
- •UK Skilled Worker visa document set assembled to UKVI checklist
- •Customer ID and document ID at intake; printed checklist with every original
What SiZA does not do
- •No NMC decision influence
- •No CBT or OSCE booking or coaching
- •No IELTS or OET test booking
- •No agency for the Certificate of Sponsorship; it sits with the UK employer
- •No back-dated experience letters or made-up registration numbers
The Real Worry
What you are dealing with
The UK NHS Trust has issued a CoS and the joining date is eight weeks out. CBT is bookable but the eligibility evidence isn’t in hand. The state nursing council has not issued Good Standing in three weeks. IELTS retake is scheduled for next month.
How SiZA addresses it
Apostille begins on the academic and council documents as soon as the scans are in. Good Standing requests get filed at the council the same week. CBT booking becomes possible once eligibility evidence is in hand. The Skilled Worker visa pack is assembled in step with NMC self-assessment, not after it. Where the eight-week window is too tight, we will name that plainly and tell the employer where the slack is.
Why customers trust SiZA
For a UK nurse, two clocks tick side by side: NMC and UKVI. Both depend on the Indian-side academic and council documentation, and neither will move until it is ready. Our deliverable is the apostilled GNM, BSc Nursing or MSc Nursing certificate, the INC and state council Good Standing, the English-language evidence in valid form and the Skilled Worker visa supporting set. Tracked custody, photo proof before dispatch and a tracked return courier are operational defaults on every healthcare case.
