    If meron pong same case with mine, 189 visa applicant with an undergraduate dependent, do i still have to obtain CEMI from the university kahit hindi natapos ung degree nya? Any other options other that taking pte or ielts exam?

    @Giyann baka naman pwede yung certicate from where he graduated high school? Or kahit undergrad I think the uni will accommodate the request, it does not hurt to try asking the school

    @Giyann
    As per DIBP website:
    "Completed a degree, a higher degree, a diploma or a trade certificate that required at least two years of full-time study or training in an institution in or outside Australia and all instructions were in English."
    Based on this completed dapat yung degree, and yung sa amin hinanapan kami ng transcript ko to prove that I completed my degree. Probably, yung option niyo is for him/her to take PTE/IELTS.

    @batman Sabi po completed so dapat po natapos. Kung hindi degree, pwedeng diploma or trade certificate na at least 2 years. :)

    Eto po email ng CO sa amin:
    Evidence of functional English
    To prove that you have functional English you must provide the following:
    ● copy of an award (being a degree, higher degree, diploma or trade certificate) that
    required at least two (2) years of full-time study or training and all instruction (including
    instruction received in other courses for which you were allowed credit) for that award
    was conducted in English.
