KEY SENTENCES
- A fear of failing Australia's citizenship test is stopping refugees from applying to become citizens, a Victorian ethnic group says.
- “It's created a barrier with these types of people. They've been traumatise, never had education or been to school and the fear of failure is a big issue”.
- “The people feel 'why are they testing us, if they didn't want us, why did they bring us here?”
- The government also said there were fears the level of English used in the test had "crept up" to native speaker level, rather than the basic level supposed to be used.
- Since the test was introduced last October, 1,286 people failed it at their first attempt.
- "But if you take the big extremes, there is a big gap"
