What was your application like? By yourself or spouse?
I already applied of course with 1 year of work in Canada and my MBA degree along with my wife.
Did not claim wife's work or education as we had sufficient points but in LOE wrote that she did her undergrad from outside Canada.
For Ielts, we did not upload the certificate but just used the IELTS no and scores. Is that fine?
Please let me know.

You must have to upload IELTS result along with your education docunents. If you don't then CIC will ask you to upload..

Hi sababx, i was the only applicant for my EE. I don't want to scare you here but you need to upload all required documents as per CIC checklist. Sometimes they ask for additional document but sometimes CIC returns it back to you as incomplete and close your case right away. Can you please let me know what is you AOR date?

You used the word "must". Are you sure that is it implied for sure?
Karunal is right here according to CIC it is our responsibility to submit all documents required and if you failed to do that, they can return you file back to you as incomplete and you have to start again from Zero.

You are fine. Its not mandatory document. Trf number is enough to crosscheck the data

Cic will never refuse if an applicant did not submit the ielts test report form. Trf is the only thing they need. They might ask you but they wont refuse for sure

Hi Karthk1990 i hope you are right but i have seen cases where applicants got rejected just because they didn't submit their ECA report eventhough we all know that CIC can pull it out from our ECA number.

Thanks for all the responses. ECA and IELTS are not the same thing though to be honest. IELTS TRF is the most important thing. My AOR date is Mar 9th and they already said BG in process and no Additional documents are required furthermore since medical passed on March 16th. Upon checking CIC they said Educational certificate transcripts are must but IELTS report is not mandatory.

Yes...CIC require all documents. I hope you will be lucky enough to get additional document request.
Why should I feel lucky to be asked for Additional Documents? If they don't ask for additional documents that's better don't you think?
