Official Language Testing - IELTS
When applying for permanent residency, the best way to provide proof of language skills is to take a language
proficiency test given by an organization approved by Citizenship and
Immigration Canada (CIC). You can then see exactly how many points you will receive for the language factor according to your test results. We can help you with this.
You Must:
- Make arrangements for testing by an approved organization. You will
have to pay the costs.
- Include the results of your test with your immigration application.
What Happens Next:
- You can use the equivalency charts to see exactly how many points
you will earn based on your test results.
- The test results will be used by CIC as conclusive proof of your
language skills.
- You can use language test results for one year from the time you
took the test.
