Exciting news for those looking to immigrate to Canada through the Provincial Nominee Program (PNP)! The Canadian government has recently announced that they’ve simplified the immigration process for PNP applicants who are not part of the Express Entry program. And the best part? Language tests are no longer mandatory for these applicants! This means that the process of applying for the PNP program has become even more accessible and easier for those who want to make Canada their new home.
Canada has eliminated language testing requirements for certain applicants under the Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) to streamline the immigration process and make it easier for immigrants to transition into Canadian society.
Express Entry vs. PNP Entry
Understanding the Language Requirements: The new policy streamlines the process for PNP applicants outside of Express Entry. They no longer need to take language tests for their application package. However, international students aiming for Express Entry need to take an approved language test and achieve the minimum score mandated by the program they’re applying for.
Important Note for Express Entry PNP Applicants
PNP applicants under Express Entry stream must undergo language testing and reflect valid test scores in their profile. Test results are verified electronically, eliminating the need for a separate copy.
Recognized Language Testing Organizations
To ensure the accuracy of language proficiency evaluations, test results must originate from approved testing agencies. These include:
- International English Language Testing System
- Canadian English Language Proficiency Index Program
- PTE Core
- Test d’évaluation de français pour le Canada for French proficiency
- Test de connaissance du français pour le Canada for French proficiency
Minimum Language Proficiency Levels
Language testing requirements have been removed, but minimum proficiency levels still apply. CLB 7 is required for the Federal Skilled Worker Program, while proficiency levels for the Canadian Experience Class are based on TEF Canada.
