Citizenship Application - Language proof

[kunalap]

Hi.
I am preparing my citizenship application for wife, son and myself.

Since my son is 6, I know he doesnt need to prove any language ability.
For me, I have a transcript of my Masters from a US university - so I am good too.

However, for my wife, she has a Masters from a University in Mumbai, India. Rest of her education was also in Mumbai, India. Will that transcript suffice? Or the diploma / mark sheet etc. suffice? It will all be in English.

Or do I need to sign her up for one of the English exams to prove ability? I had given IELTS during PR application and since I was primary, she never had to give any exam at the time.

Thanks.

anyone?

Any transcript ,Degree or DMS would suffice . The only condition is that the medium of Education : English must be mentioned or printed on that document

Degree from mumbai, india can be used as language proof. No problem at all.

Have they accepted your wife's Masters credentials as proof of English language requirement?

I had my Diploma from the Philippines assessed by IQAS, and that document said something about language of instruction as english so I guess that’s why mine got accepted

From CIC website,

The program can be in or outside Canada.

If you did, send a copy of proof that you completed or are attending a program with your application. Proof can be your:

• diploma
• transcript
• certificate

Your proof must be in English or French. If it’s in another language, you must also send a certified English or French translation. The translation should show that the language of instruction of the program was English or French
