Is IELTS score from Jan 2016 still valid?

[ay238]

I took IELTS exam in Jan 2016, and created my EE profile in March 2016 with that score, I received ITA in March 2017. Is my IELTS score valid? Should I go ahead and submit my application or should I reject it, retake IELTS, and create new profile? I don't want to spend money unnecessarily.

It is valid. Your IELTS score is valid for two years from test dats

But I read in the forum that for immigration purpose it is valid for one year. What does that mean?

It's valid for 2 years. Check here:

"Note: Your test results must be valid (less than two years old) when you complete your Express Entry profile, and when you apply for permanent residence."

Isn't it valid for 2 years from the DATE OF RESULT ???? :-[

From test date. In ur EE profile/eAPR they will ask u test date. Even in PNP applications they ask for test date. So i guess ut is valid for 2 years from test date
