Thinking about moving to Canada? This might be your lucky day! Canada just made it easier to apply for some immigration programs, especially if you're worried about language tests.
Here's the interesting point
Moving through a Provincial Nominee Program (PNP)? You might not need a language test anymore (as long as it's not part of the Express Entry system). Phew! One less hurdle to jump.
Express Entry still needs a test. This is a different program, but if this is your route, you'll still need to show off your English or French skills with a test. Don't worry, the test covers things like everyday conversation, not rocket science!
Express Entry Hack! If you do need a test for Express Entry, there's a cool trick. Your test scores can be checked electronically, so you don't have to upload a copy with your application. Bonus points for convenience!
