New Pathway - International students who graduated from a Canadian Institution - IELTS Exam Validity Question

[asaci]

Hello all,

I am interested in applying to the recent graduate pathway for PR that will open on May 6th, 2021.

I have a question regarding the language proficiency test. I wrote an IELTS test on May 4th, 2019 and results appeared on May 8th, 2019. In this case, what's the exact expiry date for the IELTS test in this case? Is it May 4th, 2021, or May 6th, 2021? I would like to take a new test, however, all of the IETLS and CELPIP centers have been fully booked for next month.

I would appreciate your feedback.

Thanks.

The IELTS results are valid for 2 years from the test date, so technically you should be good. Double check with IELTS to confirm.

Test date is May 4th, they are valid for two years from test date, not the date when results become available.

I am pretty sure you results will show May 4th as the test date.
