Frequently Asked Questions
Does one overall IELTS score convert to CLB?
CLB is normally evaluated per skill. Enter listening, reading, writing, and speaking separately to avoid hiding a lower skill result.
Why does listening need a different IELTS score for the same CLB?
The equivalency table uses different IELTS thresholds for different skills, so listening, reading, writing, and speaking do not always match at the same band score.
Can I use this as final immigration advice?
No. Use this as a reference calculator and verify current requirements with the official program instructions before applying.
