KangaKit Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 So I'm on my immi account and it asks for the English test results within the 36 months immediately before the date of the invitation letter...now my test runs out in a couple of weeks but have until beginning of may for invitation submission...will it still be valid if I lodge in April for example? Or will visa be refused as test has run out??! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jelly Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 *IELTS, not Ilets As long as your English test is valid on the date you received your final invitation, you should be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KangaKit Posted March 6, 2020 Author Share Posted March 6, 2020 So latest advice after speaking to a couple of people...although points are calculated when you are invited..it MUST be valid on the day you lodge application too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe that's true for language skills but it isn't for age based criteria. For instance you need to be under 45 when you are invited to apply, once invited (even if the night before you turn 45) you are still eligible to apply Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
