My application was submitted July 21. Status still " Application received"
My language proficiency test IELTS (L6, R7, S6.5, W6)
will expire by 2nd October 2016.
I sat for another IELTS in December 2015 ( L6, R6, S5.5, W7.5)- I assume this is CLB 7 which gives me 17points (Pls correct me if am wrong)
I know that this result meets the minimum SINP language proficiency, but my worry is if CIC will accept
the result since iam having 5.5 in the speaking section.
Pls advice
