TEF Canada knock off marks for the wrong answers?

I heard people say TEF Canada will reduce the marks for the wrong answers. However I found the marking scheme from the official website that each mauvaise répoonse will have 0 mark, which means there is no reduce marks for wrong answers. But this scheme explained the TEF instead of TEF Canada. I am wondering if someone took the exam recently and had experience in this issue? Thanks.

Don't get confused

Back in the day it was like that. Now it's all changed, they will give you 0 for mauvais réponse ou pas de réponse d'accord même si tu regardes dans les livres de préparation, c'est mentionné qu'il y a les points négatifs mais ça n'est plus le cas

Bon courage

C'est très bon! Je suis très stressé parce que j'ai acheté un logiciel d'examen. Pour une mauvais réponse il y a -1. Si TEF Canada n'a pas les points négatifs j'ai B2. Avec les points négatifs j'ai B1. C'est un soulagement pour moi! Merci beaucoup.

I am not sure about Toronto. I am in Montréal so I registered for the exams directly in the test center (McGill or ALC etc.). I think in Toronto Alliance français will hold TEF. TCF Canada is harder for me cause I prepared for TEFAQ for a while for PEQ but now I got an offer in ON so I am taking TEF Canada.

Thanks. Are both TEF and TCF tests valid for immigration like we have IELTS and CELPIP for the English test

Yes. For immigration reasons, you'll need to take the Canadian version. Both TEF Canada and TCF Canada are valid.
