Default IELTS academic version score can be used for immigration application?

Hi all...

I'd like to know whether the academic version of IELTS score could be
used in applying for immigration.

I'm planning to go for post-graduate studies in Canada and and at the
same time apply for immigration. The general version score is needed
for immigration while the academic version is necessary for study
purpose. I was wondering if I could use the academic score for
immigration purpose.

Thanking you,

Dude.

I am not sure, but it would make sense it one would because academic is
harder.

Academic version of IELTS can be used for immigration. Esentially it's the
same, but some parts arr harder.

Suggest you read http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/skilled/qual-3-1.html
especially the part that says " Note: IELTS has two options for the reading
and writing tests. There is a "General Training" and an "Academic" option.
You must take the "General Training" option."

I know what is said in the instructions, if you read the archive of this
forum you will see that this topic was already discussed earlier and Andrew
Miller
mentioned that Academic IELTS is also acceptable. What would you expect from
the instructions? Suggestion to take Academic IELTS|? It's too hard for most
immigrants and does not serve the aim of using a language for immigration,
but it;s the same test.
