Well as per application guide the IELTS has to be valid untill the date you get ITA. But recent changes in the OINP updates are confusing. They want the IELTS to be valid throughout the entire process. But i would go with application guide for time being which means IELTS should be valid untill ITA. It says subsequent federal phase and not entire federal phase.AmBiNa said:What if someone's IELTS gets expired during processing time of PPR, what happens?
