I'm not sure what you mean by 'superseded by more specific figures in the CEC application guide"?farmerofthedell said:Could the above estimates have been superseded by more specific figures in the table found in the Canadian Experience Class application guide (cic. gc. ca / english / information / applications / guides / 5609ETOC. asp), under "Using your test results"? It lists the IELTS equivalents for CLBs from 4 to 8. Unfortunately it does not specify the IELTS equivalents for CLB 9.
The CEC figures (from OP-25) converting IELTS to CLB level were used to develop the table to get estimates based on current conversion levels. In addition, to get the points you need to use the Canada Gazette proposed law to convert the CLB levels to points.
