Hi Sri Lankans :) :) :)

I thought it would be nice to share our experiences and provide our valuable thoughts and suggestion among the Sri Lankans.
Although, there are many threads which provides lots of insights, it will be of greater use since we are from the same country.

Plz join and make this thread active..

Hi need an advice from you all on the ECA,
Im planning to get my degree from local uni & CIMA assessed and want to know the process of sending the transcripts to WES. Is there anyone who knows how local universities and CIMA send it ? do we have also have to pay to these institutes in addition to the payment make to WES and could we request these institutes to send these via email?
also I'm getting this done through an agent and he says he has already made the profiles for me and my S/o but cannot share the profile information as its done through their "agent profiles" could this be accurate? because according to WES each person has to have an individual account to get their ECA done.

appreciate if anyone could be of any help. Thank you in advance! :)

CIMA will send it directly from the institute, when you subscribe to WES, in your profile there is a proforma which you send to CIMA. I believe its the same for the local uni as well. WES does not accept documents submitted by the candidate up for assessment, it has to always go through the institute, unless there is a special provision to do so. Post covid measures for electronic submission were opened up - https://www.wes.org/advisor-blog/send-electronic-academic-records/

PROFORMA: https://applications.wes.org/onlineapp/pdf/International_Transcript_Request.pdf

Also, always do your own research. Its not hard to apply to come to Canada on your own. It is shady as hell that the agent is not giving you access to your OWN profile. As of now, immigration is halted for Canada through FSWP. it is expected draws will be held in the latter half of the year. CRS scores in the short term will be around 500 for the 2020 and early 2023. Ask the agent what stream and prospects you are applying through.

Use this tool to see if you are actually eligible, as the agent may give you false hope to charge you for assessment.

Also use this site to keep up to date on immigration https://www.cicnews.com/

Student stream options are available; spouse gets an open work permit, plus you can work part time. Do a cost analysis though. Rent is VERY VERY expensive here.

Hi everyone,

Unfortunately I've paid a 50% advancement and WES skill assessment fee for a visa agent, and recently got to find out he wouldn't be giving his clients, access to any of the profiles that are being made under our names (WES, EXPRESS ENTRY) .

I've decided to do this on my own and wouldn't trust this man with my PR process but I'm having a hard time requesting him to give login details to the account that was made from our payment. What should i do about this? I could also get the skill assessment done from the same reference number but I still would need the access for the final report since i have to submit it to the EE profile right?

Appreciate if anyone could give me a solution to this please! :(

Thank you in advance

You can simply create a new profile and proceed with it - easiest method, no complications from existing account since you have not submitted an application in there yet. It’s a very straightforward process and thousands of youtube videos are there if you still have doubts

Thank youu for your reply , that's what we are planning of doing but that means we'll have to pay again for the skill assessment since they're refusing to give access nor refund the payment and I feel that is a huge loss for us given the exchange rate fluctuations as well.

why would you pay for that? Looks like you have paid for something that is free. The only time you have to pay is when you get an ITA, after you get selected from the pool.

I'm actually speaking about the skill assessment which is done through WES . we've already paid the agent to do it on our behalf and they arent giving access to it.

So if we are to do it again, on our own that means we'll have to pay again to WES to get the skill assessment done.

WES is the education credential assessment, not skill, right?
If you can get the WES reference number from them, that’s all you need.
