ITA - Decline or Accept? Urgent help needed!

Hi


My hubby received his ITA when Express Entry draw was 441. Our total score is 443. and as dependent I contributed 16 points with the below score,

Overall band 6.5....L: 6.5 Reading: 7.0, Writing: 6.0, Speaking: 7.

After we received our ITA with the above score , I came to know my IELTS is going to expire by April 18, 2017. So I wrote my exam again last week and I received my results today L: 7, R: 6, W:6.5; S: 6.5 and over all band : 6.5

But with this score, I am able to contribute only 12 points, in which total score will be: 438 where we will not fall under the cut off 441.

I have only 63 days to submit my profile.

What can I do at the moment?

1) Whether I can decline the existing ITA and create the new Express entry profile? But when I decline and create new profile ,our score will be 438. Do I hav chances that I will receive my ITA again?

2) Otherwise can I attempt IELTS one more time.

3) Any other suggestions?

4) IELTS expiry date: Test date or Evaluation date which is valid????

Kindly input your suggestions.

You can decline your ITA and re-enter the pool. With 438 CRS, you will surely get a new ITA in the next round. That will be the best course of action in my opinion.

No need to attempt for another IELTS. That will be a big risk. You are safe with your current CRS score. The cut-off was 415 for last round.

Since you already have the documents ready for this ITA, you can use them as submit your application within few days.

Good luck!
