Hi folks!

I'm going to re-take my IELTS test to try improve language points. And I have a question: if in worst case scenario my new results are worse than the previous IELTS test can I provide for Express entry profile those IELTS results that were better or do I have to provide the most recent results???

you can appear for as many times for IELTS as you want, and can use the Results from any of the test results provided they are still valid (Dates)

If your existing band scores in IELTS are minimum L-8, R-7, W-7,S-7
then reappearing won't help you much with the CRS points. However, if you have not achieved these scores, then kindly reappear to better your scores.
Both IELTS results will be valid even after you reappear and you could choose to use the result which provides the maximum language points.

Thanks for the explanation! I need to improve my Listening and Writing parts of the test. But I cannot take the results of different IELTS sections from several my IELTS attemts, right? I just need to choose that test which generally was better in terms of point. Is it correct?
