    Yeah, I do not put too much hope on this :(. Maybe if i take the Academic module and score 5.5 on each section, especially the speaking section so that I can show the immigration officer that I meet the moderate proficiency level of Speaking. However, instead of this score, the General module's...

    CIC reject AOE because of low IELTS score??

    By the way, unlike the General module, the Academic module is available within 1 month from now. So is it a good idea if I take the Academic module instead, but do only the Speaking section and skip the other section because of the differences between Academic and General modules on these sections?

    CIC reject AOE because of low IELTS score??

    Thank you for your advice. The problem is not only does AOE letter give me 15 points on the assessment test, it's also absolutely required. Without it, I simply don't have any chance at all. If somehow CIC rejects my AOE based solely on my low IELTS Speaking score, I will lose quite a lot of...

    New requirement: Minimum IELTS band score of 5.5 ?

    No, I believe he mean a moderate proficiency level for each individual category. This means I would need 5.5 on Listening, Writing, and Speaking; and 5.0 on Reading. I did tell him about this. But he said that the website doesn't reflect the new rule and that the moderate proficiency level in...

    New requirement: Minimum IELTS band score of 5.5 ?

    I think you might misunderstood what I was trying to say. What i meant was that regardless of how many points I could accumulate from other category, I would still need at least a minimum IELTS band score of 5.5. Based on what my legal assistant told me, this minimum band score is absolutely...

    Convert part time to full time (Urgent help)

    On the letter of employment verification, does my employee has to state how many hours I worked per week or can he just state in general that I was employed as part time?
