Thanks you greatly

You need both your ECA report and IELTS General result to create an Express entry profile.
Start with your ECA evaluation. It takes about 3 - 4 months for the ECA report to be out and it's valid for 5 years.
You can start practicing for IELTS and write it around the period your ECA report is out.

If you write IELTS now and your ECA report comes out in 6 months time, you would have wasted 6 months, cos IELTS is valid for 2 years
