## TEF Canada or TCF Canada?

IRCC accepts both for Express Entry and citizenship. They test the same four skills (listening, reading, writing, speaking) with different formats and score scales. Our [TEF vs TCF comparison](https://frenchtestcanada.ca/vs/tef-vs-tcf) sets them side by side, and the [TEF Canada](https://frenchtestcanada.ca/tef-canada) and [TCF Canada](https://frenchtestcanada.ca/tcf-canada) guides cover each one.

## How to use this site

1. **Find your level.** Take a reading and a listening practice set. Each level (A2, B1, B2–C1) is scored separately, so you see where you stand.
2. **Know your target.** Use the [NCLC converter](https://frenchtestcanada.ca/nclc-converter) to see the scores you need, and read [French for Express Entry](https://frenchtestcanada.ca/french-for-express-entry).
3. **Practise writing and speaking.** Work through the [writing](https://frenchtestcanada.ca/tef-canada-writing) and [speaking](https://frenchtestcanada.ca/tef-canada-speaking) tasks in the real formats, ideally with a teacher.
4. **Book your test.** Pick a centre from the [official list](https://frenchtestcanada.ca/tef-canada-test-centres) and book early: dates fill up.
