IELTS validity for CHC Singapore

[Maaties]

it talks about lock in date. You should have done your IELTS at most one year prior to the lock in date.

Still i didnt get a clear picture of ielts lock in date,,,,,,i dont understand will i need to retake???

Is there anyone (i think, no one may be) who have faced this issue??

[Maaties]

you just need to be eligible on the lockin date. thats my understanding.

OK,  once again, I'll do you and the others the favor of quoting it.
I am assuming that you did not read the OP6e.PDF.
 
Sections 10.4 to 10.10—Language:

         •  relevant sections have been updated to reflect RIM messages 04-002 and 04-016 sent to visa
              offices earlier this year regarding clarifications on "Language Proficiency Guidelines."

         Section 10.6—Approved testing organizations:

         •  test results must not be older than one year on the date of application;

         •  test results from a testing organization that has not been designated by the Department are
              not "conclusive evidence" of language ability and may only be considered as part of an overall
             written submission.

I read op6;,,,

what they mean by date of application( to CIO or local CHC)?

ielts should be valid at the time of application to CIO or when we send full docs to local CHC???

CIO

PMM

[ripon243]

So i came a conclusion that as my ielts was valid at the time of app to CIO ,it will not require to retake when i send full docs,,,,,although 1 yr validity already expired.

[ripon243]

Dear All,

REET just described that his invalid ielts(though valid at the time of app to CIO) has been considered by CHC delhi


I think,  mine will also consider by CHC Singapore
