You can send us one of a number of different documents to show that you meet the language requirement, including:

• the results of an IRCC-approved third-party test
• proof from certain government-funded language training programs
• proof of completion of secondary or post-secondary education in English or French, in Canada or abroad

For information on other forms of proof accepted, see:

• acceptable language proof tool (wizard)
• complete list of acceptable documents

You need to reach level 4 or higher to apply for citizenship. We use your documents to determine if you have reached this level for speaking and listening in English or French.
We will review the language proof you send us. We won’t process your application and will return it to you if your proof:

• can’t be read
• can’t be verified
• isn’t included with the application
• is in a language other than English or French (without a certified translation)
