I have calculated and my score is coming as 416 and latest cut-off was 441. :'(
how much difference of score does it make with .5 marks in writing? Is there any other way apart from giving the test again?

IDP has sent an email to me to notify me of the delay in test report form.

We refer to the IELTS test that took place on 11th February 2017, in British University in Dubai.

As part of the quality control procedures designed to protect the integrity and security of the IELTS test, results are routinely analysed before they are issued to candidates. As a result of these procedures, the test scores from the 11th February 2017 have been delayed from standard release for further analysis.

Does anyone experience something like this before ?

Yes. I had taken an ielts exam on Jan 7th and the results were withheld for 6 weeks. I didn't want to wait that long so I retook the ielts and for my desired score. I don't care about that previous result anymore.

Ostensibly, the only thing that matters is what CLB level you are at. Migration from CLB 8 to CLB 9 definitely boosts your CRS score. Within each CLB there is no significant difference. For instance, you have scored 8, 7, 7, 9 LRWS. Effectively your CLB is 9. But your overall CRS score won't be significantly superior than someone who scored 8, 7, 7, 7, which is still CLB 9.
