THANK YOU

BUT I READ TODAY IN CIC WEBSITE THAT ONLY GENERAL TEST IS ACCEPTEC
AND THE ACADEMIC ONE IS NOT!

Note: IELTS has two options for the reading and writing tests: “General Training” and “Academic.” You must take the “General Training” option.

Hi

THANKS....

OP 6 http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/manuals/op/op06-eng.pdf 11,5 still says both, although the post above is dated later and says only General

So who really knows?
 
IS THAT MEANS THE OP6-eng WILL BE MODIFIED SOON ?
AND FOR HOW LONG ANY BOUDY CAN WAIT TO DECIDE WHICH TEST CAN APPLY FOR ?
BECOUSE THE INTERVALS OF THE TEST DATES FOR THE ACADEMIC TEST IS SHORTER THAN THE GENERAL TEST.
THERE IS 35 ACADEMIC TEST DURING THE YEAR ..... AND ONLY 20 GENERAL TEST ( THAT'S IN MY COUNTRY ).
AND WHAT ABOUT THOSE PEOPLE WHO ALREADY APPLIED FOR THE ACADEMIC TEST, AND DIDN'T TAKE IT YET ?
 
Hi,

Soon OP manuals and other documents will be modified soon.

Only General Module for IELTS will be accepted for immigration.
