Reading this calendar

Open means the centre’s booking page shows the date as bookable. Where the centre publishes a seat count, you’ll see how many are left.

Not open yet means the date is listed but booking hasn’t started. Where the centre announces the opening time, it’s shown in the centre’s local time, and you can add it to your calendar.

Full dates stay on the list because cancelled seats do come back. A free alert from French Exam Alert tells you the moment that happens.

For immigration, TEF Canada needs all four tests on the same day. For citizenship it needs only listening and speaking, which many centres sell at a lower fee. Compare TCF Canada dates too: IRCC accepts either test.
