Dear All,

I have appeared for IELTS Academic module recently. My question is whether the result is sufficient for me to apply for Canada Immigration under skilled worker programme. In assessment my score reaches 70 with IELTS Academic. OR Do I need to reappear for GENERAL Module Waiting to hear from all of you.
Regards

Hi, all.

I have seen and read that for applications submitted for general skilled migration, the Academic IELTS result is not accepted. Why is this?

My wife and I have both sat the Academic module in the last 2 months (for Australian skills assessments), and we both obtained overall band 8.5 - I got Reading 9, Speaking 8.5, Writing 8.5, Listening 8.5. Why would this result not be acceptable?

Thanks for your assistance

Patrick and Mandy

Nobody has been ever rejected because of academic module, but after 26 June it is better to go for GT Module.
