Hi HYA, I never heard of anyone being sponsored via Family class (spousal) sponsorship needing IELTS. When you get here,employers, if need be would ask you to take CLBA (Canadian Learning Benchmarks Assessment) which is either free (to be paid by your employer) or to be paid by you. But like I said....that's if your employer needs it. Most immigrants I've talked to,didn't. That friend of yours came to Canada under work permit or under FSW ?? Maybe that's one reason why she needed to take IELTS. Foreigners (like us Pinays) when sponsored by our spouses,get landed immigrant (PR) status at once when we get into Canada. So we get all the privileges and rights of a Canadian, except the right to vote.

yes i strongly agree,, IELTS is only required by the employers and not for applicants for sponsorship..,, i was just informing my co nurses or anyone who is also required to take ielts exam that the score requirement had increased in Canada.. I am planning to apply to College of Registered Nurses in Manitoba which IELTS is one of their requirement..anyway my friend came to Canada under work permit if im not mistaken,, thanks tigerlilly for clarification i really appreciate it.. Thank you and Godbless :)

hi sis tigerlily!....principal applicant sponsored by their husband who is happen to be a nurse here in the Philippines usually took the IELTS exam in PREPARATION for possible employment in Canada. They are not required to take the exam (IELTS) but employers usually ask if you have before hand took some English test, then If you did they would consider your IELTS score. When I applied for my working visa as care-giver, its a mandatory to take the SPEAK test as a substitute to Interview/Personal Appearance, but again if you have took the IELST exam you can submit your IELTS result with passing grade and be exempted to take the SPEAK test. So if in case they haven't took the IELTS exam yet, they would consider the CLBA, since it is mainly what the employers are looking when you apply for a job...(not all job though)... :) So I guess those who took the IELTS exam just want to be at least compose since IELTS is more cheaper here :)

thank you sideangel for clarification thats exactly what im trying to imply to everyone most especially for nurses who is being sponsored by their canadian husband that IELTS is one of the employer's requirement for nurses (internationally educated applicants or for those who just came to CANADA) who will opt to practice nursing profession in Canada. Im just following the CRNM ( college of registered nurses in manitoba) requirements but other than that IELTS is definitely not a requirement or mandatory for applicants being sponsored by their canadian wife/husband.

thank you and Godbless :)

Thank you, arian! Another question if you dont mind.. If I apply outland, and need to apply for extension of their TRV's, I would need to apply it seperately from their PR applications which would mean to apply it in Canada? And if they do approve and give extensions, would their TRV extensions last long enough til they get their PR's approved, and do you think they would approve extension if my reason was so they can stay with me while the application for PR is in process outland?What are the odds that my husband will be refused entry when coming back to Canada if he ever leaves for Manila? thanks again for the help.
Also, here's another helpful answer I copied from another thread.

Well a lot of people have travelled when they already have a visitor visa for Canada or they are from a visa exempt country. I have heard that if the person does not already have one then it may be hard to get it after the application is in process. But i stil believe you can try for yourself. If she does get it she will be able to stay for up to 6mths at a time. Make sure that she has significant ties to the country so that they will not think she will overstay her time.

actually approved ka na kapag nagrequest na sila ng RPRF kase kung refused ka malamang may interview ka muna then saka sila magrequest ng payment for RPRF kung approved ka sa interview, so kung nag request sia ng fee meaning ok ka na un lang additional 2 months waiting kase late ka nagbayad.

thanks sa reply..ok na ung maghintay..atleast medyo nabuhayan ako ng loob..... late ko kasi nakita tong forum na to kaya un..hehe

Hello makikisali lang po..if Nursing graduate ka sa pinas eligible ka to take the rpn exam. may mga cases nmn na eligible na to take RN exam depende if nag masteral ka or ung years of experience mo as nurse..as of i know ILETS is require kht after ka na nakapass ng exam ok lang yun...kahit alin mauna either magtake ka muna ng english proficiency exam or magtake ka muna ng exam.Marami dn choices which one to take like TOEFL,iBT, melab and more....
This is for those mga papasok sa ONtario..per province kasi iba iba dn regulation.

check this link for the english proficiency..

Do u think thats the best thing? or pwd kaya tawagan muna or email ang CEM? kasi nsa QC lang si hubby and pwdng pwd nya pick up na lang saves a lot of time and hassle.
kung dm na at hindi pa rin dumating ang visa mas mabuti puntahan na lang.hindi naman na maka affect sa processing kasi tapos na eh.mas mabuti kung may booking na ipakita.ako ticket na mismo dala ko kaya binigay sa akin ang visa same day na nagpunta ako doon.i went there 8am tapos pinabalik ako 3pm to pick up my visa.

Hi sis cutiepie ano timeline mo?....

@ yvettee...

halos pareho tayo magwa-1 and a half month na passport ko sa CEM pero wala changes eCAS, after application received, nag-Medical result received lang then di na gumalaw...sana nga magulat na lang tayo DM at VISA na pala...actually my husband and I still waiting for CIC-M request to pay RPRF, pero di ako makapag-antay so what I did is...nag-order ako payment form sa CIC-M in behalf of my husband...so my husband just called up a couple of minutes ago and he said he got the payment form and he will pay the RPRF even without the request...I'd take the advise of other members here....kasi nagko-cause ng delay kung aantayin pa yung request nila to pay RPRF, so at least now less time if ever they made the decision wala na ako aantayin another days..weeks...month/s...nakaka-stress kasi talaga mag-antay noh! haaaayyyyy....goodluck sa ating lahat...Happy waiting! but I sense may good news itong week na ito para sa atin...God bless to all!
