Hi ,

I'll apply from immigration under the Skilled worker program , i'll be the principal applicant and i'll include my spouse in the application , i know that the PA needs to take the IELTS but does my spouse need to take it too?

thanks

Only if you want points for your wife's language abilities.

If you would not be having enough points/short of a few points in making the 67 cut-off point, then you would have to put into consideration by allowing your spouse to go for the IELTS test, which would earn you 5points under adaptability.
