Seniors,

I have applied to CEC and got AOR.

My IELTS score was valid and less than 2 years while applying but 1.5 years old.

Got recent notes from CIC and it says my IELTS score is verified in year 2014 itself.

Now after this March 2015, my IELTS score crossed 2 years and become invalid.

I have not yet received MR from CIC yet.

At this stage, would I require to appear for new test or it does not required?

From CIC website it is told that the score should be valid only while applying.

I have a similar kind of situation.

Can someone please respond if your IELTS results should be valid through out the length of your application process.

Or once the application is submitted and in process, expired IELTS score would be ok?

Thanks,

If your app is accepted by CIC and considered complete , received AOR then no need and especially when there is no notification from CIC...which means its under process and nothing is needed at this moment ...Regards.. :)

Hi Guys,

I believe that IELTS still varies on the NOC of your initial application and LOA. Per checking on CIC site, applicants who fall to NOC C and D are required to retake the IELTS once it expires during the process. I have the same scenario, my IELTS also expires during the process. But my NOC on my LOA is D. I hope that I would not undergo to another IELTS exam. ??? :-[ :-X

You may check the link below. Hope that this will help you guys.
