IELTS bands are the minimum General Training score for the same CLB level on the IRCC equivalency chart. CELPIP 10, 11 and 12 all count as CLB 10 for Express Entry. The tests are not scored on the same scale, so this shows what Canada treats as equivalent, not a prediction of your IELTS result. Confirm the current chart on canada.ca before you apply.
