Thanks, one thing I feel quite weird is that in the thread you posted, what is the difference between "photocopy" and "scanned" IELTS report? Does it mean "black/white" vs. "coloured"?
Yes of course, the British Council/IDP provides them access to their IELTS results database, all they need is your TRF reference number and they verify it independently. Same with your ECA, they get sent an electronic copy which they can access, which is why it's very important to select an ECA for immigration purposes with your ECA provider, so they send them this electronic copy directly.
You don't have to send them an official report, you can just upload a scanned version of your test report form to include with your other documents.

Exactly it seems the guy made a sort of photocopy of his IELTS and then scanned the copy. It is always a must to upload originals and if the document is translated also attach the original document with its translation ( Whether if it was translated by a certified translator or an affidavit) sealed and notarized as applicable.
