From 1 July 2009, the Migration Regulations 1994 ('the Regulations') are amended to change the English language requirements for offshore General Skilled Migration (GSM) visas. In particular, the amendments:
* increase the English language requirements for applicants nominating trade occupations (Australian Standard Classification of Occupations (ASCO) Level 4 occupation) by removing the option of 'vocational English';
* remove the option for applicants to receive points towards a qualifying score for the General Points Test for 'vocational English';
* require applicants applying with 'concessional competent English' to attain an average score of 6 in the International English Language Testing System (IELTS);
* provide that applicants applying with 'concessional competent English', will no longer be restricted to being nominated by a State or Territory, or sponsored by a person who resides in a State or Territory, in which arrangements are established for suitable English language training, nor will they be required to enroll in an English language course and pay the fee; and
* ensure that where a primary applicant is relying on partner points in the General Points Test, no points will be awarded if the partner has 'vocational English' and if claiming 'concessional competent English', they have not met the new requirements as set out for primary applicants.作者: joycejohnnie 时间: 9-7-2009 18:50

没有vocational English 了也就是只剩下：Proficient 和 Competent。 而Competent 就是最低要求了。所以不但是要平均6以上，而且是：IELTS TRF Number to show you have a band score of at least six (6) on each of the four (4) components – speaking, reading, listening and writing.作者: francis_zhang 时间: 10-7-2009 16:18
