Hi there
Please refer to CIC document checklist form IMM5690E.
It clearly states that you need a valid IELTS report for NOC C+D.
Further to this, you copy the link from the CIC website that confirms that you are in NOC A and only NOC C+D require IELTS and send it with your application.
I have called the immigration offices in Winnipeg 2 weeks ago to ask this very same question as my report was almost at expiry at that point in time.
The officer (Sharon) confirmed that as long as your NOC code is O,A and B, and your IELTS report was valid at the time you first submitted your application online to MPNP you are clear. She also said that sometimes, but very rarely does CIC request a new report, if they do you can submit then.
My report just expired last friday, subsequently so did my EE profile. But I'm not in despair as I am confident the valid IELTS will be fine and my NOC code is in the clear.
Feel free to contact the officers in the winnipeg office just to set your mind at ease.
I would rather you send your application in with your expired test and the link.
Oncve again.......this is my experience and i urge you to call the offices in winnipeg.
Good luck
