Hi, Yesterday, I quoted the phrase "initial assessment" and asked the forum members idea on what do they mean about it. My own interpretation here is:
1) That they already computed our score to reach 67 points or more that is why they gave us 120 days to comply.
2) The other one is that they simply checked our papers and noticed the academic ielts then sent us the email. The catch on this is that you may have the 16 points ielts score but since they havent assessed you there is a chance that you might not reach 67 based on the documents you submit and eventualy get a NER.
Now, to prove this 1st theory, we have to know if somebody with academic ielts got an outright rejction or an NER rather than asked to comply 120 days just like ours. Otherwise it is just a standard message sent to all who submitted the academic ielts.
I dont think that they based the acceptance of academic ielts on an applicants NOC. Because my NOC is a regulated profession and would require me to take the academic ielts again if i took the GT before. BTW, I took the academic ielts in dec 2009 coz I saw an ad before employing doctors for canada but after I submitted my papers to them, they told me that it was just for pooling purposes and offered me to work in the ME instead which I declined coz i cant stay away from my wife and kids that long. Anyway, the sad part here is there is no more slot for the GT module this january and the earliest would be on feb 12 and I booked it yesterday. I remember last year, on this same thread that somebody advised me to take the GT module while waiting, so that when my application is returned I will be able to send it back immediately but I did not followed his advise. Anyway, no regret at least we've tried and the good thing is our papers were retained at their possession and just asked us to comply.
To Punter and Midoo, goodluck with your IELTS GT module exam.
