- Canadian citizenship language proof
Waarom scoreplanning belangrijk is
Citizenship language proof focuses on listening and speaking at CLB 4—not a full Express Entry CLB 7 profile. Over-preparing for all four skills delays applications; under-checking listening/speaking fails them.
Score drempels
| Requirement | Minimum | Per-skill targets |
|---|---|---|
Canadian citizenship language proof Per-skill minimums use your lowest CLB across required abilities unless noted. | CLB 4 | Listening 4+ Reading 4+ Writing 4+ Speaking 4+ |
Canada pathways typically use your lowest CLB across all four skills unless a program specifies otherwise.
