ITA Received Today, IELTS score about to expire in two weeks

[kamalmaheshwari3@gmail.co]

Hi Experts,

I did receive an ITA today. But I realized that I took IELTS exam on Mar 14th 2015, which means my IELTS score is about to expire in 2 weeks from now.

I am not sure if i will be able to complete and submit the application before Mar 14th. As I have to do medical and police certificates and all.

Please suggest if I need to re-write IELTS? or it should work as the IELTS score is valid at the time I received ITA.

Thanks in advance.

Regards
Kamal

should be valid at the time of eAPR

Sorry I am new to this forum...what is eAPR?

 

[DelPiero07]

electronic application for permanent residence.

Thanks! so my IELTS score needs to be valid at the time of submitting the application? or I am good since the IELTS score is valid when I received the ITA.

It needs to be valid when you submit all of the requirement docs back to CIC.

You should be good if youcan submit your application before IELTS expiry

If I am able to get my medical done before march 14th, can I submit the application without police certificate.

I need to get police clearance from these 3 countries:
1. India
2. USA
3. Canada

Also I am not sure if I need a police clearance from Canada. I lived there for 16 months in 2014-15.

I can submit pcc later. Is this an option?

PCC for Canada is not needed.

Submitting w/o PCC can lead to outright rejection.. best is to decline the ITA, take IELTS soon and then apply in the next entry. you need to really do this fast.

 

[DelPiero07]

There is no need to decline the ITA - you have to retake the IETLS if you cannot submit your eAPR before your IETLS expires, you also have to make sure that your new score does not affect your CRS score so that you'd be below the cutoff score for which you received an invitation.

Your biggest issue right now is the processing time it takes to obtain a US PCC.

Not only valid, but if the new scores take OP's EE points below cutoff (based on which he/she got ITA), then OP would be no longer eligible to apply.

Obvious.

Apply for US PCC since it take 3 months right away. and get the fingerprints done by professional . If you are in india , Dont give your address . giv address of sm 1 in Canada or US . you have 90 days ... after 90 days ask for extension , they will giv you 2 months extension. keep the receipt of pcc and courier for your reference and provide it in LOE


Regive the IELTS asap ... if ur score comes down giv 1 more and keep buffer.

Thanks!

Lets say with the new IELTS test my current score drops a little bit but still with in cut off e.g. score drops from 440 to 434 which is the cut off for today. Am I still be eligible for applying?.

In worst case lets say score goes below cut off say 420 or so, but at the time I submit APR if the new cut off is below 420 will they consider my application.

They consider your application on the basis of the score on the day you were invited and not the current applicable cutoff.
