"IELTS for UKVI (General Training)" is enough.

Thank you for your reply. IELTS for UKVI (Academic) (Paper Based) will also suffice, right?

Likely not. There have been refusals for submitting the wrong test.

Academic IELTS is for student visas usually.

I already registered for the Academic IELTS. :( I thought that since Academic is difficult than General Training, it should suffice for Tier 2 (General). Is there a way out?

I can confirm that both General and Academic are acceptable however ensure to book IELTS for UKVI. I have submitted IELTS for UKVI (Academic) with a valid score for my knowledge of English, and have received entry clearance.
