HI,

One of my friend application was returned as his points were reduced to 66 due to IELTS score. Because he got 6 in writing so they calculate 16 points for his IELTS.

His IELTS score was L-7.5 R-7 S-7 w-6.

I am worried now, even I got 6 in writing.

Please advise whether to give IELTS again or not...

Hi,

I've got the following score:

speaking 7.5
reading 6.5
writing and listening 6 each

However, unfortunately on the IELTS result, the first language says Hindi. Does this mean that I'll be eligible for 16 points max? As it says on CIC website...? Kindly help...!

Thanks.

Speaking 7.5 = 6 points
Reading 6.5 = 5 points
Writing and Listening 6 = 4 points x 2

Total = 19 points.

Your first official language means the language you will mainly use while you are in Canada - so you should put "English" instead of "French"

They're not asking for your language from your home country.

Thanks for the prompt reply.

However, on my IELTS result sheet it has Hindi. Do I need to give IELTs again? As it does not say English. Though all my life I've been using English and have even studied in London.

Do you see on CIC's website about Hindi as a choice of first language??? Only English and French.

Did you write your IELTS in Hindi or English......Of course English!

Your scores are fine and you don't need to retake it.

If you'd like to retake it and believe other sources - it's up to you

Hello Canrushi,Johnny31 ,

I am also hearing that the CIC is returning many applications due to their different way of FSW points calculations for IELTS scores which would reduce the points to below 67.. The Visa officer actually verify our overall scores with different CLB levels and assign a particular CLB level to our entire score to determine the FSW points. So the points are not actually calculated for each ability and then added up like how we thought before..

I filed my application last month and if I calculate my scores as per the CIC , I would then fall under CLB level 7 that gets me just 16 points which is 3 points short of 67 pass mark. I am also worried now. I am expecting my application to be returned as well.. I have no clue what to do now.. Why are they not so clear about the FSW points calculation for IELTS? They are creating a lot of confusion....


My Scores

Listening - 7
Reading - 6
Writing - 7
Speaking - 6.5
