Dear Deva_Avik and Jnathan,
Thanks for replying yet both of u haven't had my query.
I know it very well as of late that"Once you send a valid IELTS score to your VO and they acknowledge the documents, its valid for eternity to CIC"
But I have not send my IELTS document to SGVO yet. It's still in my hand not in the hand of CIC.I stated that in my earlier messages.
Sit for IELTS on Aug, 2009. Still it is in my hand and for not sending my IELTS TRF to SGVO so far will it create any problem in the offing when I will be asked to render document updates?
Would anyone read through carefully and reply?
Official language testing
Take a language proficiency test from a designated testing agency
You must prove the level of language proficiency you claim on your application.
To do this, you must take a language proficiency test from an agency designated by CIC before starting the immigration process and submitting your application to the CIO.
Your test results must not be more than two years old at the time that you submit your application. you took your test after your application submit. so i think your IELTS is Valid until they asked for document submition
Make arrangements to take a language proficiency test with a designated testing agency and pay the test costs. A list of designated testing agencies can be found at:
www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/language-testing.asp
Submit the assessment results with your application.
Note.Do not request that your (IELTS – General Training, CELPIP - General or TEF) language test result be sent directly to the CIO. Submit your original language proficiency test results with your complete application to the CIO.
Consult the “using your test results” section to determine how many points you will be awarded for your language proficiency.
Note: Test results from a designated testing agency will be used as conclusive evidence of your language proficiency. Other evidence in writing will not be accepted as evidence of language proficiency.
If you wish to be awarded points for your proficiency in both official languages, include the results of your official English language proficiency (IELTS – General Training or CELPIP – General) and your official French language proficiency test (TEF) with your application.
