speaking 7 = CLB 8
writing 5.5 = CLB 6
reading 6 = CLB 7
listening 5.5 = CLB 6

Your score is CLB 6, 6, 7, 6 and does not meet the requirements for skill level A or skill type 0. You have to retake the test.

Hi,
I want to apply for my PR under Canadian work experience. My IELTS results:

Speaking 7, writing 5,5, reading 6, listening 5,5. I am under skill level A and I understand that it is not enough, right?
Should I try to apply with it or it doesn't make any sense?

listening 7.0 = CLB 8
reading 5.5 = CLB 6
writing 6.5 = CLB 8
speaking 6.0 = CLB 7

If you have qualifying Canadian work experience at Skill Type 0 or Skill Level A of NOC, your test results must match the CLB/NCLC below (see chart):
1. 7 or higher for each of the language abilities, or
2. 6 for any one of the language abilities, 7 or higher for any other two of those abilities and 8 or higher for the remaining ability

Your scores correspond to CLB 8, 6, 8, 7 and meets requirements for skill level A or skill type 0 and consequently, also good for skill level B.

Not sure about your NOC code.... check the NOC 2011 list or email your main duties and responsibilities to HRDSC and ask them to confirm your NOC code.

Hi,

I am planning to apply PR in Canadian Experience class and i have one doubt in IELTS score.

As per CIC guide line the CLB level VS IELTS score..
NOC CLB Level, Speaking, Listening, Reading, Writing
A,O,B 6 5.5 5.5 5.0 5.5

Here if you calculate the overall results it come 5.5(5.5+5.5+5+5.5 / 4) and they given CLB level as 6

Please find my IELTS score below

NOC CLB Level, Speaking, Listening, Reading, Writing
A(NOC Code 2174) 6.5 5.5 4.5 5.0

Same thing as mention above calcualtion : overall result is 5.5(6.5+5.5+4.5+5.0 /4) and here also CLB Level as 6?. In this case can i eligible to apply the PR with this score? it has same score and same CLB level?

Please suggest me...

there should be a new equivalency chart for CLB and IELTS, since CLB 9 is not defined by CIC yet. can anybody update on CLB9 (that is approved by CIC)?
