且听小百给大家详细解释下

原要求：英文成绩需要在递签的时候仍旧在3年有效期之内。

最新要求：英文成绩在EOI获邀时候在3年有效期之内即视为有效，即使递签的时候已经过期！

移民局原文：Allow an English language test score to be accepted for points tested skilled visas if the test was conducted three years before the applicant was invited to apply for the visa, rather than three years before the application was lodged. This ensures that English test scores do not become invalid between the invitation to apply for the visa and the application being lodged;

科普：澳大利亚技术移民签证类别189，190 ，489都是需要先满足英文等条件才可以递交EOI申请。但是有些签证等待获邀时间比较长。可能导致雅思过期。

原要求：雅思4个6分或等值的英文测试成绩。

最新要求：降低目前的英文要求，使得更多人更容易的申请到485签证。具体要求等待澳大利亚移民部部长公布

移民局原文：Enable lower English language test scores to bespecified for the Skilled Recognised Graduate and Temporary Graduate visas so that these visas can be more responsive to Australia’s labour market requirements. The tests and scores will be specified in an instrument made by the Minister;

   These amendments to the Migration Regulations are to implement changes to English language requirements for the Skilled – Recognised Graduate (subclass 476) visa, the Temporary Graduate (subclass 485) visa, as well as the range of points-tested skilled visa subclasses: Skilled – Independent (Permanent)(subclass 189), Skilled – Nominated (Permanent) (subclass 190) and Skilled –Regional (Provisional) (subclass 489).

The amendments:

• remove references to ‘competent English’ in clauses 476.111 and 485.111 of Schedule 2of the Migration Regulations；

• allow applicants under clause 476.213 and clause 485.212 of Schedule 2 to provide an overall minimum English language score and a minimum score for each of the four components of an approved English language test as specified by the Minister in a legislative instrument；

• continue to allow applicants for Subclass 476 or a Subclass 485 visas who hold a valid passport issued by the United United Kingdom, the United States of America, Canada, New Zealand or the Republic of Ireland, and are citizens of that country, to meet threshold English language requirements;

• rectify alegislative inconsistency by amending paragraphs 1.15(1)(b), 1.15C(1)(b),1.15D(b), 1.15EA(a) relating to the various levels of English language proficiency to reflect points tested skilled visa eligibility criteria; and

• remove aredundant definition ‘Occupational English Test’ from the Migration Regulations.

   The changes to English language test score requirements contribute to maintaining English language standards in the visa programme by mandating a baseline score for each of the test components, while benefiting Subclass 476 and Subclass 485 visa applicants who are ‘only just’ missing out on meeting existing English language requirements. This change is welcomed by industry stakeholders who raised concerns about not being able to provide an overall/total English language testscore, where scores in some components may be slightly below the current threshold while others are above. The changes to move English language testscore requirements for Skilled – Recognised Graduate (subclass 476) and Temporary Graduate (subclass 485) visa applicants from the Migration Regulations to instead be specified in a legislative instrument provide flexibility to make further changes more easily if these requirements need tobe adjusted to better reflect labour market needs.

485签证包括了TR和PSW签证，476签证是给海外部分认可大学的工程系毕业生，部分毕业生因为英文考不到雅思4个6或同等分数，不得不依赖于延续学生签或其他签证。签证英文要求的降低不仅帮助广大的申请人节约了学费，而且最重要的是减少了因为再次延签可能面临的签证被拒的风险。移民局应该说的是所有英文考试，包括雅思和OET等考试，可以多张试卷并用，只要每项凑到要求，如雅思均分只要4个6，但多次考试，每一项都曾经到过6等。

原要求：递交485之前需要预约或完成体检。

最新要求：递交485之前无需预约或完成体检。目前无论是PSW还是普通的毕业生签证，在递交485申请前必须安排体检，否则会被视为无效申请。按照新的法律，此项规定将被取消

移民局原文：Repeal the requirement that an applicant for a Temporary Graduate visa must provide evidence of having made arrangements for medical examinations at the time of application for the visa. The amendment removes an unnecessary burden on applicants as many applicants may not be required to have a medical examination to meet the health requirement at the time of decision for the visa.
