enjiniko said:If you already took the IELTS exam and you have met the passing mark, I think you can include that in your application form together with some other documents required. On the otherhand if you're IELTS is expired already then that's the time that you should take again another IELTS exam. This IELTS is used as their basis to check if you have met the required level in using English as a means of communication, reading, writing and listening as well. Aside from that if you have a passing mark for IELTS you can also used that as additional points in one of the criteria like in the so-called self assessment form online. In passing your application and documentation to the visa office you can also attached that IELTS as your supporting document and it gives a bearing.
I see. I saw that the passing mark is band 5. Let's say if my IELTS test result is 4.5? Will they reject my application? Do i have to convince them in writing letter to them?
May i know what is the expiry date of the Visa after they approve it? 3 months? 6 months? 1 year?
Thank you for your help. Big thankS!!!!!!!!!!!
