So I guess all it takes is to post on here :D:D. Just had an update:

3. Status: In progress
We are reviewing your evaluation report.
Status last updated: 3/8/2019
Your evaluation is due for completion on 3/28/2019

So that makes it 45 days from receipt of documents to start the evaluation...
That's pretty scary. It is supposed to take around 20 business days.

Yup, pretty annoying. Although if you read the fine print it reads "An Educational Credential Assessment (ECA) [...] takes about twenty (20) business days after we receive, review, and accept all your required documents [...]" (from wes.org). So basically it can take however long they feel like it, technically they hold themselves to their word...

I read it again and you are right. I never thought the ECA could consume that much of time. It gives us a taster of what is awaiting for us after ITA.

They imply all evaluation will be finished in 20 business days...
They do not tell that review takes twice the time required for evaluation. That is not ethical at all.

Hi @SASH8288 did you upgrade your WES report with new credentials?

Hi..earlier back in 2016 i had my graduation assessment and now masters.....
@SASH8288 What is the process for new credentials upgrade? Can we follow the old policy which allows us to send the transcripts directly or should we follow the new policy from Dec-1st Where the university needs to send the transcripts directly to WES? Please help.

I got an update.

All documents were reviewed and accepted.
Updated 3/12/2019

Your evaluation is in progress. You are not required to do anything at this time.
Your evaluation is due for completion on 4/1/2019

So hopefully they stick to their date and I will have the ECA soon.
