I guess, you mean TEF.
I think you will still need to take the IELTS (International English Testing System) if you are planning to apply for FSW, even if you are sure of getting 16 points in French.
Hmm, don't you think Immigrating to Quebec, (french speaking province) would be better in your case?
Here, try this:
