Convert IELTS General Training skill bands to Canadian Language Benchmark reference levels for immigration research.
For Express Entry, IRCC accepts IELTS General Training—not IELTS Academic. Always verify which approved test is required for your program.
CEC, FSW, FST and category-based selection can have different language thresholds depending on occupation/program/category rules.
Language results must remain valid at the stages required by the immigration program. Check expiry before relying on a profile or application plan.
