If English is not your first language you need to sit for IELTS. Instruction guide says that you are strongly recommended to take the exam, fact is that you are required to take one

If English is your first language then you can send a write up to Visa office explaining your proficiency and number of points depend on IO/VO

Read the instruction guide, it tells you all the information you need and also check out the visa office specific instructions for the documents required to be submitted.
