Pumpkin Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Just upload the result when you get it. When a CO picks up your file they will add up points, regardless of what your points were when you put the application in. Note they will only do this once, so once you have a CO your points tally is fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is only if a CO picks up the file before the IELTS is completed. Points are assessed once only. Only passport holders from non English speaking countries need to have that IELTS test result in at time of application. How does one qulaify as being a forum expert in your view. :biglaugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kellyjamie Posted February 20, 2011 Author Share Posted February 20, 2011 we phoned DIAC and explained the situation and the lady very kindly said it was fine she has attached a note to our application explaining our Ielts are to follow so if a CO picks it up before we upload the results they will know and therefore will wait for our results, she said lots of people make small mistakes and not to worry, itsa very stressful long process of forms and they expect people may make mistakes:wacko: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Meeky Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 I have a similar question, but I must to point out that I'm NOT from an English speaking country. After having read "Booklet 6" (form #1119), I arrived at a conclusion that it's OK to lodge an application (in my case for 175 visa) without evidence of English language ability: You have up until the time of decision to provide evidence that you meet the Englishlanguage requirement. However, it is advisable to provide evidence that you meet the English language requirement at the time you apply as a decision on your application will not be delayed if evidence does not accompany the application. A decision on the application may be made soon after the application has been received based on the evidence on hand. The thing is that I haven't been able to get a 7.0 on the writing part and without having a proficient level of English I lack exactly 10 points to score the pass mark of 120. The question is whether I'm allowed to claim 25 points for 'proficient' English while applying online or only 15 points for 'competent' English which I have evidence for? If the former, what I should specify as evidence - the number (TRN) from my current IELTS result letter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest VickyMel Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 Hi Meeky No idea if it applies to your case but there was a not re changes to when IELTS was required for the skilled visas (only some visa types - not all) - take a look here to see if it impacts on your application What's New?
