Do I need a language test for my student permit if my institution didn't require it?

I've gotten accepted to Humber for a postgrad program and I didn't use any IELTS for my application. I sent them an enrollment letter from my previous university showing that I did my undergrad taught in English in a four-year course in the USA.

Now for my student permit application, do I need to upload a language test? As per the Student Direct Stream, it says it is necessary. However, on the online application for the permit, when I selected that I had no language test results, it's not asking me to upload any. Is it safe to go ahead without a language test? I plan on uploading the enrollment letter which states that I was taught in English in the USA. Also, Humber doesn't provide any letter that states I'm exempt from IELTS or anything. They said my admission letter is proof that I have passed the English requirement.

Any help would be appreciated.

Can anyone else shed more light? I don't want to take the risk of getting my student permit application rejected but I really shouldn't have to have a language test for a student permit either. More confused because the online application doesn't have a language test section to upload unlike the other documents.

Check u local visa office equipment, including some visa offices test score is strongly recommended why in others they are not even listed among required documents
