i would strongly recommend give IELTS and dont apply from india.
Even if you are in india, go to a different country and apply.
Also if you are in US, dont waste your time, justgo ahead and apply and you should get your canadian PR in 1.5 to 2 years max i guess.

Good you have recieved visa stamped on passport.
I observed this statement. Probably your agent miss inform you. This was the transition period of new rules to come in force from 1 Jan 2003. So all applicants were issued letter by CHC to take IELTS exam for decision to be made before 31 July 2003.
I strongly believe agents are not required for applying immigration to Canada. views and news of agents are available on other threads.

country of your origin. If i am a indian citizen i can only apply from india
