Clarification. ILR ratings. Other ratings.
The ratings in my previous posting are not ILR. They are ratings from that specific test. I haven't been tested under ILR specifications, but I would probably be:

English: 5
Spanish: 3
Italian: 1+

The online test I took said my ratings are:

English: Advanced
Spanish: Beginning Advanced
Italian: Advanced Beginner

So you can see how they compare.

Also, ILR is the 1-5 rating system. The English only rating system is actually LPI, Language Proficiency Index. So, I wasn't entirely correct on that.

"The official Government Language Skill Level Descriptions" are now called the ILR Scale. The official page seems to have been shut down or moved, but there is plenty of information online. You can find more info on your own.

I think ILR stands for "Interagency Language Roundtable". But I'm not sure.

Language pair: Italian; Spanish
