I am planning to apply for Canada express entry program. I am yet to WES verify my degree certificates and yet to get a transcript from my universities for the same.

In my UG degree certificate my name is mentioned without any space between first and the middle name and in my PG degree certificate it is mentioned correctly. I would like to know what I need to do in order to get my certificates successfully verified by WES.

Thus if my name is Sam George Mathew, then in UG certificate it is mentioned like SAMGEORGE MATHEW and in PG degree certificate it is mentioned correctly as SAM GEORGE MATHEW.
Also in all other official record my name is mentioned correctly as SAM GEORGE MATHEW.

Do I need to attach any additional document while applying for WES? Also while filling the UG credentials in WES portal, against the column -What Is the Name on the Credential? Shall I enter my correct name i.e. with space between first middle and last name.

Please help.

Send the documents to Wes. They do their own thing and let you know. Write your correct name in all the application form

Write the name as you want to appear. WES will include the names as in both the certificates. So, don't worry about this. In my case, my name was Santhosh Kumar B in UG certificate and Santhosh Kumar Boopathi in PG certificate. WES provided my ECA as "Santhosh Kumar (B.) Boopathi".
