Hi there, not sure if a degree certificate works! When you applied for your PR you provided IELTS/CELPIP right? Attach a copy of that certificate. It works like a charm.

All the best,

It is on the website... you could choose ONE OF THE FOLLOWING TYPES OF LANGUAGE PROOF
it is the option 2.

I'm from the Philippines and just submitted my application July 3.

I just submitted my transcript and my degree certificate as well.

Choose one of the following types of language proof to submit with your application:

  1. Results from a third-party language test

    Your language test result must be equal to the Canadian Language Benchmark (CLB/NCLC)/Niveaux de compétence linguistique canadiens level 4 or higher in speaking and listening. If you did the test in the past for immigration or citizenship purposes, we will accept the results even if it has expired.

    Examples of third-party tests include:
    • Canadian English Language Proficiency Index Program General Test (CELPIP-G) or the CELPIP-General LS (listening and speaking).
      • If you took the test after April 1, 2014, you must have a score of level 4 or higher in listening and speaking.
      • If you took the test before April 1, 2014, you must have a score of 2H or higher (i.e., 3L, 3H, 4L, 4H, 5L, or 5H) in listening and speaking.
    • International English Language Testing System (IELTS), general training, not the academic version You must have a score of:
      • 4.0 or higher in speaking and
      • 4.5 or higher in listening. (Note: If the test was done before November 28, 2008, we will accept a level 4 or higher)
    • Test d’Évaluation de Français (TEF), Test d’Évaluation du Français adapté au Québec (TEFAQ) or TEF pour la naturalisation.
      • If you took the test after July 1st, 2012, you must have a score of:
        • Niveau B1 or higher, (i.e. B2, C1 or C2) in Compréhension de l’oral and Expression orale
      • If you took the test before July 1st, 2012, you must have a score of:
        • Niveau 3 or higher in Compréhension de l’oral and Expression orale. (Note: if you took the Test d’Évaluation de Français (TEF) before July 1st, 2012, you need a level 3 for expression orale only. This applies only to the TEF and not the TEFAQ or TEF pour la naturalisation.
      We will accept the following proof if you have submitted them in the past for immigration purposes to Quebec (note: these tests align with the échelle québécoise and not officially with CLB/NCLC 4):
      • Diplôme approfondi de langue française (DALF) – All test results
      • Diplôme d’études en langue française (DELF) – Level B1 or higher
      • Test de connaissance du français(TCF) – Niveau B1 or higher
      • Test de connaissance du français pour le Québec (TCFQ) – Niveau B1 or higher
  2. You attended or are currently attending a secondary or post-secondary education program in English or French, either in Canada or abroad.
    • A degree, diploma, certificate or official transcripts from a secondary or post-secondary education program showing you studied in English or French, in Canada or abroad.
    • If the original document is in a different language, include:
      • a letter from the school showing that the language of instruction was in English or French along with
      • an official translation of the original document and
      • the address and contact information (phone number) of the education institution
