Hi everybody,
[Outland application but staying in Canada as a visitor]
We received our SA yesterday* and now it's time for TOEFL, i had this test 4 years ago in Israel when i finished high school and now it's expired, so i wanna take the test again, i ordered the books and materials and i'm planning to study by myself cuz i know how things work this time, my question is, am i allowed to take the test in canada while i'm on tourist status? i know i'm not allowed to work or study in canada but this is just a test and in order to take it i just need my passport. But before i start studying i wanna make sure that i actually can take it here cuz i don't wanna break laws and get in trouble.
Thank you!


* If anyone is wondering it took 3 months cuz we didn't have the marriage certificate when we mailed the application and mailed it to them after 2 months when they asked for it and we just got it.
 
I took the TOEFL while on vacation in NYC because it was so much cheaper there than in my home country. Taking the test while on visitor status should not be an issue at all.
 
Yes, you can take the test while here as a visitor.
 
Oh that's great! Thank you :) btw before they changed the times the processing times Tel Aviv VO had 9 months for the second stage, should I expect 9 months or 15 months?
