hi piyush,

it doesn't really matter where u studied or living, for NON-native english speaking ppl, IELTS (general test) is MANDATORY.
TOEFL doesn't work for immigration purpose.

hi,

if ur application reached before 26June 2010, how u hav calculated ur points? how did u define ur language points without the IELTS.

well, in most of the case IELTS result is not required for pre-26 june 2010 applicants. U may take IELTS after ur 1st AOR comes, but at the same time, all the supporting doc. are supposed to be sent to visa office within 120 days. For that, u have to make sure u will be able to take the IELTS, n sent the result card with full documents.

IELTS registration is sometimes fulfilled, so might have to wait for another month, n result is be given on 13th day of the main exam, so that might be proven smtimes risky.

[ BUT if u r post 26June 2010 applicant, the IELTS is mandatory. If u havn't sent it, then ur applicantion will be returned.]


cheers

lamhey,

Really appreciated ur help :). my application reached before 26June 2010, I defined my language point based on my TOEFL score and i also submitted photocopy of my TOEFL score card. Do they mention in AOR that what kind of supporting documents i need to submit ? and AOR comes by mail or email ?

I guess, either way i have to give my IELTS exam.

thanks,

piyush
