Fide Wrote:B.3 c) An illegal move is completed once the opponent’s clock has been started. The opponent is entitled to claim a win before he has made his own move.

Once the opponent has made his own move, an illegal move cannot be corrected unless mutually agreed without intervention of an arbiter.
