TCF Canada results and how long they stay valid

Your result gives a score for each test. Immigration programs set how long they accept it.

Published by TCF Vancouver · Updated

How do I read my result?

Each test gets its own score and level. A weak test can lower your overall result, so check all four.

How long is a result valid?

Immigration authorities usually accept results only for a limited time. Check the current rule on the official site before you apply.

Can I ask for my result to be re-marked?

As of 2 November 2026, both Vancouver TCF centres say re-marking requests are suspended since 1 September 2026 and should resume in fall 2027. Ask your centre for the current rule.

What if I want to improve?

Look at your weakest test first. Build a plan for that skill. Take the test again only when you have time to improve.

Rules and fees change. Always check the official sources: France Éducation international and Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada.
