Dear XXXXXX,
Notification of Delay of IELTS Test Results
We refer to your IELTS test of 6 January 2018 against passport # XXXXXXX.
IELTS recognises that you have taken our test in support of an application for further study, migration, or professional recognition.
As part of our strict quality control procedures to protect the integrity and security of the IELTS test, results are routinely analysed before they are issued to candidates.
These procedures have flagged results from the test taken on 6 January 2018 for further analysis, and therefore your results will not be released on 19 January 2018.
IELTS reserves the right to undertake further analysis as stated in its declaration on the IELTS application form. By agreeing to the declaration you have declared that
'I understand that my results may not be issued 13 days after the test if IELTS deems it necessary to review any matter associated with my test'.
We will provide you with an update on your results
on27 January 2018.
If you have an approaching deadline, please contact us at
results.ielts@idp.com with details of your chosen recognising organisations.
We can provide an official letter that can be presented to those chosen organisations explaining the delay in the release of results as part of IELTS routine quality and assurance procedures.
Thank you for your patience while we complete the necessary analysis.
Regards,
TEAM IDP IELTS
