Reminder: TOEFL iBT Not Accepted for AU Visas (Since July 26, 2023)

The Department of Home Affairs is no longer accepting TOEFL iBT scores for visa applications as of July 26, 2023. This is due to a revision of the TOEFL iBT by ETS (Educational Testing Service), which is currently under review by DHA.


What it means:


โ€ข If applicants have a valid TOEFL iBT score obtained before July 26, 2023, they can still use it for a visa application.
โ€ข If applicants took the TOEFL iBT after July 26, 2023, they will need to consider taking an alternative English proficiency test accepted by DHA for visa purposes.


Accepted alternatives:


โ€ข Cambridge English (CAE) (C1 Advanced) (Paper-based test only after Feb 12, 2024)
โ€ข International English Language Testing System (IELTS) (Including OSR (One Skill Retake) NOT accepted for subclasses 476, 482, and 485)
โ€ข Pearson Test of English (PTE)
โ€ข Occupational English Test (OET) (for health professionals)
