Please find my comments below:Seby25 said:JB plz answer my queries..
1. If ur IELTS got expired/was going to expire then how did (also why did ) u create the profile in the 1st place ? While creating the profile either you would have given your old expired/going to expire IELTS score or you would have to give some arbitrary IELTS score assuming that you will get that score when you retake the IELTS examination. So it needs to be concluded that you were aware of the fact that your IELTS score was going to be expired, still you went ahead with profile creation. Do not know if CIC would see it as misrepresentation of facts..
2. Say you retake IELTS (to get a slot it may take 2 or 3 months depending on centre and country). Again after exam another 14 days to know the score and another couple of days to get the hard copy. All these time if you keep your EE profile active you will be getting an ITA for every draw that happens after you reject ITA(hurray..!! you got ITA again..) and subsequently you will be rejecting them each time. So basically you will keep rejecting the ITA everytime till you have your IELTS score and in the due process one another person will be loosing his/her chance to get ITA because of this..(You can choose to ask him to GO TO HELL. Fact is - Your are being devil here! Question is - Do you want it ?? )
3. God forbid, What if you do not get the expected score when you retake the IELTS.. In that case, You will have to edit your already existing profile with the new score.. Which will decrease your CRS score.. or Will you choose to keep your expired IELTS score in the profile till the time you are able to improve your score..
4. PCC delay need not be a concern. CIC clearly states that if PCC takes time it is pretty acceptable for them. All you have to provide is the proof that you have already applied for PCC..
(http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/tools/perm/express/intake-complete.asp#document_checklist
In exceptional circumstances, CIC may accept
- Proof of having requested a PC for such countries;
- A letter of explanation of best efforts (not a guarantee of acceptance).
)
My best advise (taking ethics into consideration and not being the devil ) is to reject the ITA now.. Keep your profile deactivated till you have your new IELTS score; Once you have the IELTS score Activate your profile with the new score and take ITA... Considering your CRS score i can presume that getting a good IELTS score will not be a unwieldy task for you..
Yet again if you decide to keep your profile active it will be nothing short of just a dummy profile with misrepresented facts and data..If CIC, for evident reasons, at a later time decide to bring in new rule to the allow only max of 1 or 2 or n ITA rejects then you will be in trouble..

1.) My IELTS had not expired when I had created my express entry profile, Additionally I was under the impression that IELTS is valid for three years thus I never bothered writing it again. Now when I got my ITA, I got to know that I would have to rewrite IELTS as they clearly tell you in the ITA/CIC website to rewrite it if it has expired/expiring soon and ITA also mentions to decline invitation if your scores are lower or you dont have the results. ITA/CIC nowhere tells you to deactivate your profile for the aforementioned reason.
2.) I am not going to deactivate my profile because creating it is a time consuming thing in itself.
3.) I dont have multiple PCCs and there is no scope of getting them soon either.
