How well do I speak English, this is the first question that any foreigner wishing to immigrate to Canada should ask himself. 

Many times people may think that the level of English is reduced to a basic conversation on any subject, even that knowing a little English is enough to travel to Canada and overcome the challenges of adapting to a new country when, in reality, it is not so. To come to Canada with a view to obtaining permanent residency, you must have a good level of English. 

If you have been asking yourself this question, you are in the right blog because on this site our language academy, Planeta Immiland, constantly uploads informative content about Canadian immigration and its relation with the ability to speak English and French, so this crucial topic to live permanently in the country of your dreams will be addressed below. Join me in this reading about the level of English for permanent residency in Canada and how speaking it can help you get remote work from home with great mental health benefits. Let's start by knowing what exactly it means to have a good level of English for permanent residency in Canada.

The level of English in Canada varies according to the immigration plan.

When it comes to immigration for the purpose of obtaining permanent residency, where Express Entry comes in, the level of English must be advanced. Here there are two aspects, the application itself asks for an intermediate level, but it does not mean that because you have the elements of acceptance you will get permanent residency, since the required score in English is advanced, at least eight points; it can be a little less, but in Immiland we always recommend going for the highest in all the bands of the exam.

What English test is required for permanent residency?

For the Express Entry system, the IELTS and CELPI are the general type exams required, not the academic exam, as this corresponds to another immigration route. Read our article The importance of IELTS to immigrate to Canada. We also invite you to take your English test to find out what level you are currently at and, if necessary, take an English course online or in person, whatever your modality, improving your score will help you qualify for permanent residency.

In Planeta Immiland, we have a remote English learning course that prepares you 100% for the IELTS, we also help you in the English for the Express Entry for 18 weeks, at the end of the article I will leave the link so you can know the methodology that we apply and the offers.

Advanced English guarantees work and mental well-being

If you have already improved your English and scored at least an 8, for example, then it will be easier for you to get a job remotely or from home, and if you have successfully obtained your permanent residency through any of the immigration routes you have chosen, it will also be easier for you to function in the work and social environment of the country.

Advanced English goes beyond a high qualification, once the applicant masters the language, doors to a more prosperous lifestyle begin to open, on the one hand, he/she is able to apply for a remote job where he/she needs to communicate with different English speaking countries, on the other hand, the economic income usually improves when he/she is a candidate for bilingual jobs in high demand, has adequate linguistic resources to understand and manage the environment in his/her favor and improves his/her self-esteem by feeling well qualified.

In today's globalized world, more and more companies are expanding and they all want to have the best people. The ability to speak English fluently and competently at level eight makes you a very good user of English, you will have fewer problems in solving unfamiliar situations and you will be able to handle complex and detailed argumentation well in your work or day-to-day life, all of which will result in a sense of security and stability of your mental health.

Permanent residency in Canada is a wonderful opportunity, speaking fluent and advanced English is necessary to achieve it. In Planeta Immiland, we constantly receive international students who want to learn English to overcome their own barriers, many of them have managed to enter the remote labor market of the new digital era and the Canadian country, so we invite you to improve your English level to discover how far your potential reaches and finally have the satisfaction of living permanently in one of the most developed countries in the world and with great openness to foreigners.
