Nationwide Immigration Services23 Mar, 2026Legal

The International English Language Testing System (IELTS) is one of the most widely accepted English proficiency exams, with millions of test takers in more than 140 countries.

IELTS authorities have announced that the paper-based test will be phased out from mid 2026, shifting entirely to a computer-based format. With Canada continuing to host a large number of international students and thousands of institutions accepting IELTS scores, this change will impact students, workers, and PR applicants, making it essential to adapt preparation strategies accordingly.
