you dont need a degree.
you will need an english language test unless you are exempt for being from english speaking country.

@iworker

Thanks for quick reply.
Yes I do have to give english language test but not sure I need to go for IELTS academic or general.
Do you know which one should I go for?

Thanks

you could go to naric and get an equivalency certificate to prove your english. you will then have to submit both naric and uni certificate with visa application.
if i were you, i would simply do ielts to keep things simple.

@manorana2009 - kindly refrain from starting new topics with the same question. Keep ALL your Tier 2 General questions in ONE thread (this one).
