My confusion is about picking the answer "Yes" or "No" because of the following ...

I haven't taken IELTS yet BUT when my application will be processed , I'll take the exam related to the language , so since I'll take it , should I pick "Yes" because I'm going to take the test and then provide the results later ? or should I pick "No" because I didn't take the exam yet ?
*Note : I'll take IELTS once they ask for other proof documents and provide them the results later. and for now , I selected the language proficiency randomly , is that ok ? or should I take IELTS before the whole application being sent ???
Please help with this!
Thank You

You should NOT lie. That's the most important rule!

You have not taken the test yet, but still want to tell them that you have. But remember that your certificate has a date on it and it real easy to find out that by the time you told them you have taken the test you actually had not done so.

If I were an IO, I would refuse you immediately. Nothing personal, just business.

It is really important not to lie, if you haven't taken before it will be showed in your IELTS results as the IELTS result sheet states how many times have you made the test before. So, in my opinion I would say NO.

Not decided
Just say No for the initial application. You can change when you submit the full application at your local CHC if by then you have taken the test

Harith,

1. If u r tight on points, that 'No' will fetch u a 'Refusal'.
2. If u r not French, U'll get '0 points' w/out a DELF, DALF, TCFQ or TEFaQ.

Ur best bet: Write "Yes", add 'Applied for IELTS/CELPIP'. Book it and attach the receipt in 2nd stage of apps (if by then the results do not land).

Regards.
Ps: Thus, my trackitt remark still stands.

Tick Yes then provide cover letter that IELTS will be taken on "specific date". IELTS results can be made available after the CIO initial application. But it is advisable to take the IELTS before you submit the initial application.

harith86,

You should attend IELTS exam before submitting your application and mention Yest in the form because it is better to mention yes in the form. IELTS result is valid for one year and new process is also taking not more than one year.
