IELTS requirement for canada PR

[nic_ainp]

I'm a PNP nominee preparing my permanent residency application. I had a couple of questions on the language testing requirements for my permanent residency application. Can the test be waived if medium of education is english, which is the case for me.
If not, can I submit my application with test results pending (in other words, can I submit my application before taking the test)?

You'd better to take IELTS test.

I agree with VictoriaM but it may be useful to share with us more information such as , which province are you applying for through the Nominee program.

I didn't think you needed a IELTS result if you were being sponsored under the PNP route.

I could be wrong here but I know for a fact my friend, whom is currently awaiting her PR through the BCPNP, did not need an IELTS score.

Maybe other Provence's are different.
