How the conversion works

IRCC publishes one chart for TCF Canada and three for TEF Canada, depending on when you took the test. Each skill is converted on its own: your NCLC can differ between reading, writing, listening and speaking.

Source: IRCC, Language test equivalency charts (checked 2026-09-29). IRCC's charts are the reference if they ever differ from this page.

Speaking and writing are usually the hardest to move. Parlo trains exactly those, with a live AI examiner and corrections aimed at NCLC 7 and above.
