Hello!

I accidentally found this forum and I would like to ask couple of questions regarding this IELTS test. I've been living and working in The united States for 9 years. I went from student to worker's visa and currently holding H1B. I become more and more interested in immigrating to Canada and I noticed IELTS requirements. I do speak English and I took TOEFL 10 years ago. I also earned 3 AAS degrees, one BS degree and one MBA.

Do I really need to take this test?

Thank you,

Alex

Yes - it's mandatory for all applicants.

No IELTS = automatic refusal.
 
Thanks for the reply. I also have some questions regarding certain questions in the application package. Can I send you private message if you are familiar with them?

Does one still have to take the test if he received his school education in English?

I am very confused because in different website I found different results for example somewhere I found range 26 - 29 as 6.5 for Academic Listening but somewhere it was mention as 27 - 29 for Academic Listening. Can anyone please help me on this.
