English language for citizenship
Does anyone know what is required for proof of English language for citizenship? I did my school in the UK and had an English grade. Does this count or do I need more

Re: English language for citizenship
You may send a transcript, diploma or certificate showing that you graduated from a secondary school or from a post-secondary program in Canada or abroad. These materials must show that the program was in English or French. A single course in an official language is not enough to meet this requirement.
What documents can I use to prove that I meet the citizenship language requirement?

Does my school result show this or not? I passed GCSE English, my electrical qualification course in the UK and my Red Seal is in English

You can use the language wizard here:
Find out if you have the language proof you need to apply for citizenship: Step 1
If you didn't do a language test as part of your original PR application (expired results of the language tests specified in Step 2 of the above link are okay), personally (in your particular situation) I'd consider doing CELPIP LS (Listening & Speaking). That removes the uncertainty over whether the Application will be sent back and may be quicker in the end.
