Latest Changes in IELTS Score for Australia Immigration

With start of the New Year, Australia’s immigration department made modifications to the English skill prerequisite for applicants who would immigrate in the General Skilled Migration Visa category.

Following are the changes, effected from 01 January 2010:

1. English skill prerequisite for all GSM visa applicants who propose trade occupations have greater than before. Now it is necessary to put on a minimum of 6.0 points on Competent English on every of the 4 modules of an IELTS test.

2. Candidates would not increase points for the General Points Test for vocational English. Previously, there was a condition of receiving a least of 5 points for vocational English on every module of an IELTS test.

3. A state or territory would no longer limit future immigrants claiming concessional competent English to accomplish the condition of receiving sponsorship or nomination.

4. Furthermore, if applicant intends to submit an application with concessional competent English, he will need to get an average of 6 points in IELTS test.

5. Main applicants would not be rewarded with points in the General Points Test if they rely on their partner points; given that the afterward have vocational English.

6. The English language standard for future immigrants applying under Skilled-Regional Sponsored GSM Visa class has been enlarged from an average of 5.5 points to an average of 6.0 points in an IELTS test.

Thus one thing is obvious that potential immigrants planning to enter Australia under the General Skilled Migrant Visa category would now need to have higher level of IELTS or English proficiency. On the other hand, the new requirements will only be relevant to applicants who have filed their immigration applications after January1, 2010. Applications filed before the initiation of the changes would not require to meet these standards!

  1. Hi
    This is Karim Sabetraftar. I've got my PhD from Australia (ANU) IN 2006. I am a faculty member at Guilan University in Iran since 1994. I have a plan to migrate to Australia and work as an Environmental Health Officer. First of all, I think, it is a little bit weird for somebody like me to get another IELTS for this procedure (after my study in Australia for around 5 years). Recently, I've just had a IELTS exam test in Tehran and I've got 6.5 score (overall band), 7 for speaking, 6.5 for writing, 6 for reading and unfortunately, 5.5 for listening. Now, my question is, should I take another exam for my immigration process? Or that would be enough? Please send your reply to this email address:
    karim.sabet@anu.edu.au
    Look forward to hearing from you as soon as possible.
    Regards,
    Karim

    If you see, I have got 7 in each section at least once in these 3 attempts.

    I need 25 marks of English Eligibility (i.e. 7 in each) to make 120 marks points.

  31. hey i think what u guys are wanting to know is that if u want to score points in the new point system for
    IELTS 6 which does not have any point additional is
    Listening(L) 6
    Reading(R) 6
    Writing(W) 6
    Speaking(S) 6
    anything lower than that i do not think you will be qualify

    but for ielts 7 which is
    Listening(L) 7
    Reading(R) 7
    Writing(W) 7
    Speaking(S) 7
    you will receive 10 points

    and for ielts 8 which is
    Listening(L) 8
    Reading(R) 8
    Writing(W) 8
    Speaking(S) 8
    would allow you to get 20 points.

    hope this will allow everyone to understand the system.

  34. Hi,
    My friend is planning for application with category 176 visa. His ACS is successfull and have got EILTS result as well. As the new point system shall be active from July 2011, some States have halted taking application for sponsorship therefore, it will e filed expectedly after it resumed and new point system in place.

    EILTS result doesn't comply with the least required I.e 7 band in each component to claim the points.

    My question is, if he scores enough (65 point) without producing/adding EILTS 7 band, can he be still eligible to apply with state sponsorship in hand. However he will attach his EILTS result of L6.0, S6.5, W6.5, R 6.0.

    Can anyone experienced and expert advise on this ?

  72. Hi I am Ramon. I am from Malta.

    I will be looking at a State Sponsorship Visa to Australia as an Archivist. My recent IELTS test scores were like this.
    Reading 9.0
    Listening 8.5
    Speaking 9.0
    Writing 7.5.

    Now I was told to redo IELTS as I will need 8.0 in all bands. I have 5 years work experience. Can anyone tell me if I need to redo the IELTS? I was of the opinion that since I have two 9.0, the 7,5 in writing will not matter or am I wrong?

    Could anyone of you email me on ramonmizzi@gmail.com.

    I would appreciate any comments or answers.

    Thanks

    1. Hi Ramon,

      I have very similar results to yours, and was wondering if you had to redo your IELTS to get a band 8.0 in all categories. Was the 7.5 in writing a big issue for you? Were you able to get the full 20 points on the visa application, or did it drop to only 10 points, due to the 7.5 in writing.

      I appreciate your reply and advice on your experience.

      Thanks.

  90. Dear Friends,
    I'm in big confusion, I took IELTS Academic and overall got 8 (R-8.5, L-8, S-7.5,W-7).
    But DIAC site says only GT acceptable until unless specified by Accessing Authority.
    The reason I gave acad was I had plans for studies, but fortunately got Job in Singapore. Now I want to apply for Aus PR.
    Should I take IELTS GT now?
    Thanks
    Ravinder

    Is there any option to migrate to Australia for Nurse (BSc Nursing) with IELTS score of 6 in each band. I could not get 7 in each band.

  94. Hi all,
    As far as I know Nurses are required to have IELTS score of 7 in each band for PR processing. I have only IELTS score of 6 in each band with average score of 6.5. Are there any other option to move to australia. I have 3 years work experince in Nepal with BSc Nursing.
