Hello 
I sent my applications for law a few weeks ago and I got four conditional offers from University of Leicester, University of Essex, University of Lancaster and University of East Anglia. I included my IELTS TRF number in my application, however, in their acceptance letters, Leicester and Essex have asked me to obtain IELTS. Does anyone know why do I have to do that and how? Should I send a scanned copy of my TRF electronically or should I send a physical copy? Anyone facing the same issue?

A scan is not sufficient since it can be easily faked, so you have to send the certificate per post to the university. You had the option to let IELTS send your results to 5 universities after taking your test (you could choose it durin your application)

Most things are done electronically now. The TRF can be used to verify the results direct with IELTS so in most cases a scanned copy of the original is sufficient. It saves someone in the office having to open the post, scan it in, store it electronically then dispose safely of the original paper copy. If you had thousands of paper copies of ielts, degree certs etc it could become a full time job in itself.

Well, most universities say that they want to have the original certificate of the IELTS results and a scan is oviously not original.

Don't you know you should never send original documents?
EDIT: I don't want to sound rude (sorry if it came across like that) but I just doubt they would ever ask for the original certificate.
Plus, the OP was asking if he should send a physical copy or a scanned copy electronically. So, I guess he's not intending to send the original?

I decided to contact the universities because I didn't find a clear answer online. I hope that they will respond soon enough!

Both universities have responded today and they have verified my IELTS results. They didn't specify why they were unable to do so before though

Didn't have to send anything. I don't know why they couldn't have done it from the beginning.

When you receive the PDF of the score report, (not the test taker provisional results), just email a copy to your choices.
