Language Testing System: Test D Valuation

International English Language Dept: Immigration applicants must also submit proof of proficiency in one of Canada s two official languages through a mandatory test, according to new instructions released Friday by Immigration Minister Jason Kenney. Until now, some applicants were allowed to submit a written declaration testifying to their language ability. For example, exemptions could be granted to those who were educated in English or French, according to The Star. The approved language tests include the International English Language Testing System IELTS and Test d valuation de fran ais TEF . The language requirement also applies to applicants under the Canada Experience Class and the federal government will cap at 20,000 annually the number of visa applications from skilled immigrants in an attempt to reduce the backlog. Only test results from a third-party language testing agency . . . will be accepted, the instructions say. Kenney will officially announce the changes Saturday in Toronto. As reported in the news.
