anna86 Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Hi, I'm currently getting ready to apply for skilled 189 visa and need to sit the IELTS to get enough points. For a skilled visa does anyone know if you need to sit the general or academic test? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a skilled visa does anyone know if you need to sit the general or academic test? Thanks! if it's just for extra points then it's general. If it's for your skills assessment then it's most likely to be academic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lukescotty Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Majority are 'general' but you'll need to check, because some 189 occupations require academic ielts, check it against the occupation code you're going for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anna86 Posted June 9, 2016 Author Share Posted June 9, 2016 Thanks all for the advice, have booked academic just to be safe as am applying for the skilled visa as a medical professional. As far as I'm aware I only need to get a 7+ in all domains in order to have enough points to apply but this way I'll be covered if it is needed for skills assessment too hopefully.
