Need Help - Spouse Language

[rajasu]

Hi,
We are here in Canada around 6 years(PR) and We are planning to apply for Canadian citizenship and We are not sure about the language requirement for Spouse. She did her U.G and P.G in India and All her transcripts are in English only. She did not take any English exams or courses here.
As of now I have only 2 options below and Need some suggestion from this group:
1. Is that education document enough to proceed with her citizenship application?
2. Shall I apply for myself and kid and later apply for her once she completes any english test here?
3. Any other suggestions please?


Thanks
Rajasu

You may use her degree from India along with a letter from the university stating that medium of instruction was in English.

U can use her degree, but if that degree doesn't say that the medium of instruction as English, it may be returned. Try looking for her 12th grade sheet. If it says medium of instruction as English, submit it and you are good to go.

Do you think that 12 grade education in english from India/ Pakistan will be accepted as a proof of language requirement by CIC?

Your spouse can write IELTS. A couple of hundred dollars is a small price to pay...
