              Monday, 29 August 2016 / Published in Immigrant Investor Venture Capital, Immigration, Immigration Manuals

              The Language Testing for the Immigrant Investor Venture Capital Pilot Program


              Last Updated on November 23, 2017

              Applicants in this class would need to prove their language skills in English or French. For this, they would need to take a language test approved by Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC). They would need to:

              • Schedule a language test approved by Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) and pay the relevant fees

              • Compare their test results to the charts given subsequently to see what Canadian Language Benchmark (CLB) level they have achieved and,

              • Include the original test results at the time they apply in case they meet the minimum level of Canadian Language Benchmark (CLB) 5 (the officers will not accept any photocopies submitted)

              Note:

              • Applicants would need to ensure that their test results are less than two years old at the time when Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) receives their applications

              • The authorities would not consider applications for the next step in case applicants do not include the original test results

              • It is worth highlighting that applicants should not ask the organisation that produces the results to send the language test results directly to Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC)

              • Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) would be checking all language test results submitted with applications with the organisation that produced the results
