Indeed, the system is much smoother now, although no improvements in timelines. With WES not evaluating masters from India and not accepting transcripts from candidates, timelines are not going to come down :(
Hi where did you get the information that wes is not evaluating masters from India?

I meant, WES has stopped evaluating MBA from Indian universities as Masters, unless it is either of 3 years duration or is from IIMs/IITs. Generally they are assigning it as 1 year post graduate diploma

My status just went to final review on 1st feb ,2019 directly from in line for processing , however I can not view my certificate. Is that that a problem or how can I view my certificate?
You don't get to view certificate immediately your status changes to final review... You my have to wait a bit.

I am seeing a trend in WES related forum on this website and other websites that nowadays WES is re-verifying the transcripts with universities even after receiving it directly and as you can guess, our universities are taking forever to answer OR are not even answering many times without repeated followups.
And in case of IQAS, what I am observing here is that although the time taken by IQAS in opening the documents and then "inline for processing" is very long now, but once the status changes to "Assessing", it goes to "Final Review" and "View Certificate" very smooth and fast.
Is that a valid observation? what do you guys think?

But despite that,WES is faster than IQAS!

Alas!!!!! got my ECA yesterday. My timeline is as follows;

AOR 2 (Final) = 03 Oct 18
Status "In line for processing" = uptil 21 Jan 19
Status "Assessing" = 22 Jan 19
Final Review = 24 Jan 19
ECA soft copy = 31 Jan 19

IQAS takes a lot of time ;(
Was it worth the wait? Can I for instance,apply to WES for an ECA assessment despite having my application with IQAS

Hi,
I received my assessment today. I have a 3 yrs bachelors degree and a 2 yrs masters degree in computer science.

IQAS stated equivalency as:

Bachelors degree compares to completion of 3 yrs bachelors of science.

Masters degree compares to completion of 4 years bachelors of science degree.

Can somebody tell what does it mean? Will I need to select bachelors in the express entry profile or 2 or more certificates, diplomas or degrees?

Thanks in advance.
It means iqas also gives bsc + msc as 4 yrs bachelors ?

Here I believe you have to use ur higher degree evaluation in profile entry.
