Federal Skilled Worker requires CLB 7 in all four abilities. Canadian Experience Class requires CLB 7 for TEER 0 and 1 occupations and CLB 5 for TEER 2 and 3. Federal Skilled Trades requires CLB 5 in speaking and listening and CLB 4 in reading and writing.

All of them. The checker holds the published entry requirements of the nominee programs of Ontario, British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Prince Edward Island, Yukon and the Northwest Territories, plus the Quebec skilled worker selection programs and the Quebec Experience Program. Nunavut is the only territory with no nominee program of its own, so people who settle there arrive through a federal program.

It is much harder than it used to be. The three Express Entry programs and the Quebec streams do not require an offer, and Saskatchewan keeps two no-offer streams open for expressions of interest. Almost every other provincial stream in 2026 is built around an offer from a local employer or around status you already hold in that province. The checker shows this plainly rather than implying that everything is open.

No. Quebec requires documents in French, so a certified translation into French is needed for its selection programs, while the rest of Canada accepts English or French. Manitoba goes one step further and asks for a notarized copy of the original together with a sworn translator affidavit. We prepare both forms.

Any document issued in a language other than English or French must be submitted with a certified translation. This usually includes birth, marriage and divorce certificates, diplomas and transcripts, employment reference letters from foreign employers, police certificates from your home country and foreign bank statements. Passports and Canadian-issued documents normally do not need translation. Get an instant quote or see birth certificate translation for IRCC.
