Results & Scoring

Your performance is judged on a scale of zero to ninety, with each dialogue contributing a maximum of forty-five marks. To earn a pass, you must satisfy two conditions simultaneously: score at least twenty-nine out of forty-five on each individual dialogue, and achieve a combined total of at least sixty-three out of ninety. Falling short on one dialogue—even if you excel on the other—means an automatic fail.

Assessors evaluate your interpreting across several criteria including accuracy of meaning, fluency and flow, grammatical correctness, and register appropriateness. A single significant distortion of meaning can cost you heavily, which is why precision matters more than poetic flair. Results are typically released within four to eight weeks of your test date and are published directly in your NAATI myPortal account.

Once issued, your Credentialed Community Language result is valid for three full years. You can use it to claim points for multiple visa applications during that window, provided the policy has not changed. Given how competitive the Australian points system has become, securing this credential early gives you strategic flexibility. You are no longer racing against an expiring English test or worrying that a birthday has pushed you into a lower age bracket.
