You can use anyone of these as long as both of them are less than 2 years old for CIC purpose. For OINP (PNP), they expect the score to be less than 1 year old. Whichever Test Result Form (TRF) among the two you submit will be considered.

you no longer have a valid job offeryou no longer have a provincial nominationyour language test scores have expired, or you re-took them and they are lower

Hi,
The above statements are not true.
Your IELTS score is valid for 2 years. Even if write multiple times, the TRF that you will ultimately submit (obviously the one with highest score) will be considered.
