🚨 AHPRA English Requirement Update (From 23 April 2026)

Planning to register as a nurse or midwife in Australia?
This update could directly impact your application.

The Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia has revised the English test score requirements — but it’s not as simple as “scores increased.”

✔️ Some scores have gone down
✔️ Some components have actually increased
✔️ Requirements now depend on when you took your test

For example:
PTE overall score has dropped,
but writing and speaking requirements are now higher.

📌 Key things to check:
• Your test date
• Your test type (IELTS, PTE, OET, TOEFL, etc.)
• Whether old or new score standards apply to you

⚠️ If you’re combining two tests, each test is assessed based on its own date.

Staying updated now can help you avoid delays, extra costs, or even rejection.

If you're unsure how this affects your situation,
feel free to reach out — we're here to help.

🎓 Big news for future New Zealand graduates!

Starting from **August 2026**, New Zealand is making it *much easier* for international students to move from study to Permanent Residence 🇳🇿✨

Here’s what’s changing under the Skilled Migrant Category (SMC):

✅ Master’s degree = **6 points (FULL points!)**
👉 No longer need 1 year of skilled work just to meet the minimum requirement

💡 What this means for you:
1️⃣ Complete your Master’s in NZ
2️⃣ Use your post-study work visa to secure a skilled full-time job
3️⃣ With **6 points already from your degree**, you can apply for PR once you have a skilled role

📌 As long as you meet age, health, character & English requirements — you’re on track!

🚀 If PR is your goal, a **New Zealand Master’s + clear career plan** is now one of the strongest pathways.

Follow us for the latest updates on 🇳🇿 study & migration pathways!
