Hi Khilav,khilav said:Hello
Guys I m new to this forum. I have a friend in winnipeg who supports my MPNP application ( distant relative / friend ) category.
My question is I have already cleared IELTS test in the year of 2008 and 2009 respectively. Both the times I got 6.5 overall band score. But both the test results were expired in the year of 2010 and 2011 respectively. I have done my schooling as well my college graduation, and the medium of instruction was English. Do I need to undergo IELTS test again as the result validity expired or Can I attach both of my previous test result to prove the language ability.
Do I need to submit ( upload ) these results at the time of MPNP online application or at the later stage ?

I personally did not submit an ielts result when I applied for MPNP, however, I did provide a certificate from my employer that our medium of language here at work is English (been working for my current company for 6 years- and it's an american company subsidiary) and I was given an LOA....
You may also ask for a certificate from your school that the mode of education is english and attach your previous ielts results, however, you need to be aware that it is a risk that you are taking. Depending on the reviewer, you may still be required to take the IELTS exam and send them a new set of results which will delay your processing time vs. sending the new results with your application (you need to attach the results in the Language Proficiency section of the online tool)
It would really depend on you, if you want to take the risk or want to be on the safer side....
Hope this helps. Good luck!
