First you should check whether IELTS has to be valid at the time of the AOR at CIO or visa office.

Anyway, if it is expired for whenever the cutoff date is for you, then you can retake it and send it with your documents.

The CHC requirement is IELTS result within 1 yr.You will need to re-sit before full docs submission as the one you submitted to CIO was to take advantage of your English language point(16points).Good luck

This my understanding too, you do not need to take it again as, "Honorable PMM" stated.
It is clearly stated and self explanatory on their Web-site as well as the OP's for FSW.

Sorry for being a bit harsh, but why don't you research and read it yourself.
Go to the CIC Web-site and search for the OP6e.pdf and EG7.

Bobbyb what I meant is that in your first post to this issue you stated that the result with the guy is still valid and was surprised that you were referring the guy to a new web site with was some strong language.

Well, if you read the whole posts from the beginning, I referred him only when he asked the same question again. And, that site is not a new web site. In fact, I am of the opinion that each and every applicant should take time and pain to read them i.e the Immigration bit plus the EG's and OP's, at least once. Oh, by the way where do you think we get the information from? From this same web-site and from all these same EG's and OP's.

it talks about lock in date. You should have done your IELTS at most one year prior to the lock in date.
