Experts please advice.

I have a score of 427, and my IELTS is expiring in July 2015. Do you think I should reappear for it. What if I get an invite in June-July (positive thinking), will CIC reject me stating IELTS is expiring !

Thanks in advance for help/suggestions!

I cannot say whether you will be invited before July because no body is aware of the CIC pattern.
But, in case you are invited, you should be able to submit the PR application before the expiry if IELTS i.e., July (what ever date it is).

Your IELTS should be still valid at the moment you submit your application and all supporting documents (after receiving ITA).

To be on the safe side I would take the test again. I wouldn't want to take chances given all the cancellations we've been seeing lately

One thing to consider, and I don't know if anyone would have an answer to that, is:

Since the initial requirement to create an EE profile is to have a valid IELTS/CELPIP, I wonder if the EE profile would get cancelled/ineligible automatically at the IELTS expire date.

I don't think so, though I can't say for sure. My IELTS expired on April 6 of this year. I got an ITA on March 27, took the IELTS again on April 18, uploaded the new results on April 29, and uploaded my PR application on May 7 after my medical exam. My ITA was certainly not withdrawn during the time I had no valid IELTS, I can say that for sure.

dobes,

I guess you might have scored different in the IELTS exam you have taken later i.e., on April 18th. Did it not impact your score?
