The Educational Testing Service (ETS) announced on May 29 that its TOEFL iBT exam has been certified for use in Canada's Student Direct Stream (SDS) by Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).

SDS is an expedited study permit processing procedure for international students who want to study in Canada.

According to ETS, this will now speed up the application process for students appearing in the TOEFL iBT because most SDS applications are handled within 20 calendar days. Students can submit TOEFL iBT scores as part of their SDS application beginning August 10, 2023.

“We are thrilled to be unlocking more opportunities for students to access one of the world’s most desirable study abroad destinations,” said Rohit Sharma, Senior Vice President of Global Higher Education and Workskills at ETS.

“Not only will the addition of TOEFL benefit hundreds of thousands of students who take advantage of the SDS route each year, but institutions can feel confident knowing that they can access a wider pool of applicants who can demonstrate their skills with the premier test of English-language proficiency.”

Previously, only the English-language testing option was authorized for the SDS route.
