Hello,

I would like to know if the 2 years of language test validity is only for PR application or does it have to be valid during all the application instruction ?

I passed IELTS test on July 2018 and apply for PR (via Express Entry) on May 2019, so it is still OK. But my case is still in progress. If, in the worst situation, I still don't have any answer on next July 2020, would I have to pass the IELTS again ?

Thanks in advance.

1. No, you don't require another IELTs. As long as your application is submitted before the 2 years is up, you are fine.
