Subject: IELTS requested...my options
  Hi,
I applied for Canada PR, and I was asked to take IELTS exam to prove my English proficiency. Currently, I am not able to take this exam due to personal reasons...and I wouldn´t be able to take the exam in another 4 months. What should I do..? Can I just keep quiet or should I inform CIC?

Can I ask CIC to asses for my English proficiency based on submitted documents? How would that be?

some info on me...
MS in USA
4+ years experience in USA
sent published article as part of english proficiency proof

Thanks!

It´s better to comply with CIC´s request. However, if you really can´t take the test, give CIC the reason. You can ask for an extension of time. Keeping quiet might not be to your advantage. It could be your marks are borderline and a good IELTS result is needed to meet the pass mark.

I know its a pain in the butt to take IELTS in the US! I´ve been in your position. However, keeping quiet may result in your case being quietly rejected!

Request more time to CIC. They used to accept requests for extension before but lately, I understand that extension requests are being denied!

Asking to assess English seems a waste of your time and theirs. They already know your history and may have assessed. Still, since I believe you are not from the English speaking countries, you must take IELTS.

When I was in the US, there used to be 4 centers in 4 corners but now there are 8! Dont waste your time, choose from one of these centers and take it:

IELTS? Test Centers
Boston, MA
Chicago, IL
Houston, TX
Manhattan, NY
Portland, OR
San Francisco, CA
Santa Clarita, CA
St. Petersburg, FL
