Note on Functional English (1) For points tested visas like 189,190 & 491, English test results are valid for 3 years, not 2 years from the test/result date, “IF” you are claiming points for it.
(2) For spouse’s Functional English requirements, which DOES NOT give you any points, you must present a Functional English test result which is at least 12 months valid from the visa application submission date. If the Functional English test result is more than 12 months old, your spouse must either give a new English test, and get at least a Functional level score, or prove their English eligibility via other means like a letter from your spouse’s educational institutes (university, college etc) which states that the medium of education in that particular institution is English.
If you cannot do what is mentioned in point # 2, then you must pay an additional fee of around AUD 5k for your spouse’s English skills requirements in order to get a visa grant.
