IELTS expiry date - query

[SRP4693]

Hi all,
My express entry score is 489 currently, I have also received NOI from Ontario and even submitted the documents. According to a few threads here IELTS expires on test date and in my case that would be 27th Feb, 2023(ie today), I've also retaken IELTS but was unable to match the score so my CRS would drop below 489 if I update the profile. I want to try my luck in the next draw with my test results date. Just wondering would it be a wise idea not to update the express entry profile. and will my profile expire/get cancelled which would affect my OINP if I don't update it with latest score. Please need your suggestions.

I would suggest to attach that and go ahead, you never know if you get ITA with that score. Update it once you get a new one. You never know if the new one you are intending to give will be there only for citizenship and this one you are ignoring will get you an ITA. If not still you had another one lined up.
