My IELTS will expire on the 21 of December 2023. I need to confirm if I submit my application in mid-December and then do my biometric(might be a month late, after receiving a letter from IRCC), should they receive my application on that same day I applied on the portal?
you need to have AOR to actually freeze the score, even if you have ITA and your score expires before you 'submit' the complete application, you are still not eligible. Source: ITA document which IRCC sends for express entry draw picking.
There are three stages:
1. You create an express entry profile
2. You make it through the cutoff list of draws which happen routinely and get ITA
3. You successfully submit the file in 60 days after ITA (also called AOR)
Your Language scores needs to be valid throughout these pointers.
