IELTS Enquiry on Result

Suppose you are sure about your performance in the exam and cannot get the desired band score. In that case, you can fill out EOR (Enquiry On Result) by visiting the online section or at the IDP office. You must pay up to INR 13,500 and wait at least one month for the EOR to be completed. Once your bands have improved in EOR, your fee of EOR will be refunded to your account within 20 days. Suppose your result will remain the same after rechecking. In that case, you will not get a refund as per the rules and regulations of IDP. So it is recommended to all students that you fill out EOR only when they are sure about your performance.
