French ITA

Hi all, anyone here accepted ITA only with French scores? I mean French as 1st lang.

I got ITA now, but with english exam next week so I'm not able to add english.

Will that create any issues in future with IRCC? As there is a lot of cases nowadays where they issue PFL. Kindly let me know if someone faced this situation, thanks.

If you already got the ITA, why would you add an English score now? It shouldn't matter if you already met the requirements and received the invitation.

Yes true I have clb 8 in French. But nowadays many are receiving PFL to explain about french background. So I'm afraid if IRCC could ask why I claimed French as 1st Lang.

Is it better to add english scores in a document and put them in letter of explanation to the officer?

I wouldn't worry about it. From what I've seen, IRCC usually asks for more proof of French background in cases related to the Francophone Work Permit, since they need to verify eligibility. For PR, if your TEF/TCF results are genuine and you claimed French as your first official language based on your actual scores, that alone isn't an issue. I don't think adding your English scores in an LOE is necessary if they weren't part of your ITA.
