Even if you were born or studied in an English speaking country like the USA or the UK, you'll still need to provide evidence of your English language competency. This is an Australian Government requirement, and guarantees you 10 points when applying to Department of Home Affairs (formerly DIBP).
When applying, you must submit a high-quality colour scan of your test results. We'll complete the necessary security checks to validate and confirm your results.
We accept:
- Pearson PTE / IELTS tests undertaken within the past three years if the score reports can be verified with the providers.
- TOEFL / Cambridge CAE tests undertaken within the past three years.
Please contact us if your English test result expires in less than 30 days.
