Hey, I just wanted to know whether my ECA process can be started ahead of my IELTS results. Am currently going to coaching for IELTS. I would be taking the exam within a month. I have completed B.Arch and am currently working in Chennai, Tamil Nadu in India. I would also like to know about job opportunities for architects.

Yes, of course. ECA and IELTS are not linked, but you need both for your express entry application. Getting your university/college credentials assessed (ECA) takes a few weeks no matter which service provider you choose, so the sooner you get that started the better.

My ECA from ICAS took 8 months.

@OP, get started on the ECA as soon as you can, it can take a while :)
