Exemptions:

Exemptions do apply for applicants in specific circumstances. You do not need to score well in an English exam if any of the following apply to you:

• Hold a valid passport in Canada, New Zealand, the Republic of Ireland, the United Kingdom or the United States of America
• Have completed 5 years full-time study in secondary education or higher in a course where the primary teaching language is English
• Nominated by an SBS sponsor to perform work at a diplomatic posting or consulate of another country
• Nominated in an occupation that requires occupational licensing, registration or membership to perform the occupation, where English proficiency was required to obtain licensing, registration or membership
• The applicants must have achieved the test results required in the approved test on the test day in a single attempt at the test

If none of these apply, you will be required to sit an English test, which must be an approved test, completed in one day in a single attempt. The medium and short-term TSS visa streams have different English requirements.
