Re: IELTS Requirement for NSW state.
You need to have a minimum of six in each band for NSW sponsorship, but some occupations require higher scores. Make sure you have a read of the NSW website to check what your occupation requires.
It also indicates the fact that anyone who can achieve 60 points without having to score 7 bands in each module can still become eligible. That would be of some help for all people having difficulties scoring 7 bands in all modules in IELTS. However the only notable thing that I've found is, they have made it clear that the candidate must fulfill the concerned assessing body English requirements which is also competent English. Plz if anyone has some additional info, do share it. Thankx

Re: IELTS Requirement for NSW state.
One of my friends also wants to apply for NSW. They have not indicated any specific IELTS requirements for any particular profession. All they need is competent english which is 6 bands in each module and 60 points as apparent on their website. But still I wanna make sure that it is actually the case as I might have missed something important.

English Language
Applicants must sit the International English Language Testing System (IELTS) and score at least a six (6) on each of the four bands (Writing, Speaking, Listening, Reading).
Certain occupations require a higher standard of English in order to obtain a positive skill assessment. Please refer to the assessing authorities' English language requirements.

These may be different from those of the sponsoring State.

Why?
The link posted by mrsgreenstar76 in post #2 works perfectly fine, and the answer is clear enough. NSW only require that you have at least a 6.0 in each of the four bands (reading, listening, writing and speaking), however you may require higher scores for your skills assessment depending on your occupation.
