IELTS (General)

Immigration to English-speaking nations such as the UK, Australia, and Canada requires the completion of the IELTS General Training English proficiency test.

The test evaluates speaking, listening, reading, and writing abilities to make sure non-native English speakers can fit in and do well in certain settings. The IELTS General Training test is administered in India by IDP: IELTS Australia, which is an important part of the worldwide education and career support system for individuals who want to live, work, and study in English-speaking countries.

Frequently Asked Question

How long will it take to get my IELTS result?

You won’t ever have to wait longer than two weeks to get your IELTS results, regardless of how you take the test.

Can I check my IELTS result online?

Checking your IELTS results online is simple. We’ll send you an email notification with a link to examine your scores as soon as your results are available. A preview SMS notice can also be sent straight to your phone by some testing locations.

What is the IELTS Test Report Form, and when will I receive it?

The official certification of your test results, known as the IELTS Test Report Form (or TRF), can be presented as evidence of your fluency in English. This can be an electronic version (eTRF) or a paper copy.

How can I get copies of my Test Report Form?

Photocopies of your IELTS Test Report Form will not be accepted by the majority of the institutions you are applying to; original copies are required. On the other hand, you can print your eTRF or email it if you took the IELTS online.

Up to five extra copies of your Test Report Form may be sent by us to the organizations you are applying to (such as colleges, businesses, immigration agencies, etc.). Within two years of taking the test, please provide the pertinent addresses on the Test Taker Portal if you would like us to accomplish this.

Some universities and organizations have started subscribing to the electronic download of IELTS scores, even if paper versions are still the standard. Before mailing or requesting that we send a paper copy of your results, please check with your local test center.

How should I read my IELTS scores?

For each of the four test sections—speaking, reading, writing, and listening—you will receive an IELTS band score.

To represent your level of English proficiency in each of these categories, each will be scored on a scale from 0 to 9. These could be half band scores, like 5.5, 6.5, or 7.5, or whole band scores, like 5.0, 6.0, or 7.0.

An overall band score, which is a summary of your English language proficiency factoring in all four test areas, will also be displayed on your IELTS Test Report Form.

Can I have sections of the test re-marked?

You have up to six weeks from the date of your exam to submit an Enquiry on Results (EOR) request if you would want further information about your test results or to have any part remarked.

This can be completed in-person at the testing location or online using the Test Taker Portal. Re-marking a section of the test carries a fee, which will be reimbursed if you receive a higher result on any section.

Enquiry on Result (EOR) results may be accessed as soon as the application is submitted or up to 21 days later. The quantity of parts you’ve asked us to remark is one of the many variables that affect how long it takes.

Please get in touch with your test center if, after 21 days, you have not heard back. If you used IELTS Online for your initial exam, please get in touch with us.

Can I retake one section of the test to improve my score?

You can obtain your target score on the IELTS One Skill Retake without having to retake the entire exam. You can retake any of the four IELTS test skills—listening, reading, writing, or speaking—within 60 days of the first test date if you would like to increase your score on one of the test skills. Only IELTS computer bookings are presently able to take the IELTS One Skill Retake.
