    Yes, IELTS is required to work in Canada. IELTS General Training is the correct test type for immigration/work purposes.

    GRE and IELTS are both requirements for any form of study you wish to pursue. However, in case of a proper work opportunity, you would still require IELTS as the English Proficiency test.

Usually, the IELTS paper test is only on Thursdays and Saturdays. But the computer-delivered IELTS test often has slots on Sundays in big cities. You will get to know about the IELTS available dates while booking the slot only.

Yes, A valid passport is mandatory. You need to upload a scan when you book and bring the original passport on the IELTS exam day. No other ID is accepted.

It is best to book at least 1 to 2 months in advance. High-demand months (like before university deadlines) and Saturday slots fill up very fast. Avoid last minute booking of IELTS slots.
