Hi,

I have given TOEFL (iBT) and got 112/120. Will TOEFL be acceptable to the Canadian authorities as a sufficient proof of English ability (enough to earn the full 16 points) or so I have to give IELTS as well?

thx!

IELTS, that's what the documents say anyway.

If you claim proficiency through a letter then other tests may be used to support your argument. However, if you are showing your proficiency through IELTS, then IELTS is needed. Most people aer expected to do the IELTS.

I am not an expert at Canadian Immigration.
Please don't expect me to answer if your post title has urgent in it and it is not really urgent. Urgent is 911 or you have a definite deadline tomorrow, not that you would like to send in the application soon
