105 AUSTRALIA VISA PROGRAM | 澳大利亚签证项目 LISA DE LEON If the visa applicant does not have functional English, he or she will need to pay a second installment visa charge of AU$9,795. Any secondary applicants (family members) who don’t have functional English will need to pay AU$4,890. EARNING YOUR FINAL SCORE It is possible to reach the pass mark on the innovation points test without having English language skills. It is sometimes possible to reach the pass mark based on assets and business turnover alone, depending on the size and success of your previous business. The points test is not needed for the SIV, PIV or the entrepreneur streams of the 188 business innovation and investment visa. The points test applies to the business innovation stream or the investor stream of the 188. There is no points test for a 132 business talent visa. It is not mandatory to have English skills to be granted a business or investor visa in Australia, except under the 188E entrepreneur stream, which requires competent English.
