If you’re writing the IELTS to come to Canada as a permanent resident, you will do the General Training test and the Academic IELTS is for those planning to go abroad to study.

If your plan is the Canadian permanent residence application through Express Entry, try to also work towards CLB 9 and above (in IELTS this is at least Listening – 8, others 7). CLB means Canadian Language Benchmark, and that’s what your IELTS is converted to.

The image below is what the IELTS to Canadian Language Benchmark (CLB) conversion looks like for Canadian immigration.

The highest CLB you can get is 10, and for the Express Entry permanent residence program, the higher your CLB the higher your overall point (when added to your age, work experience, education, and other factors).

For more information about the Express Entry and Permanent Residence programs in Canada, please check the curated posts here

I wish you all the best!
