ICES (BCIT) Timeline
- Thread starter Canadian1867
- Start date
ICES seems to be struggling to keep up with the no. of applications they're receiving, after extending their timeline to 30 weeks, they completely shut off their online application system last week saying they won't be accepting anymore for a while but they seem to have opened up that option again.
I don't know whether they're struggling with manpower or if there is a covid outbreak in their area but they can't seem to get off the struggle bus lol

Hello Everyone,
I have applied for ECA from BCIT ICES. They received documents on 22nd feb,2021 from my university. Today I received a mail saying your myBCIT account has been updated to k****@my.bcit.ca to correctly reflect your legal name. There are no other impacts or changes to your bcit email account. Please advise your instructor or contacts of your new BCIT email address.
Has anyone got the same email at some point of time? I am not able to understand where to check this update.
Thanks!

I agree.
This 30 week rule applies to anyone who sent in their application post April 1st so thankfully I'm exempt. They said they'll try to honour their previous 20 week timeline for people who submitted before that date.
No, haven't heard of this but sounds like if you're giving direct access to a university to check your ECA through BCIT then they'd need to be informed of this email change, that's it.
If you haven't given permission to share this report with anyone then it shouldn't matter.
My current timeline-
Documents mailed by University-18 Feb,2021
Documents being received and checked by ICES- 22 Feb,2021
Evaluation in Progress- 27 Apri,2021.
Now waiting for next!

That's not a bad timeline. They took a little over 2 months to go from received to evaluation. Hoping mine moves this swiftly too!

From all the timelines posted on this thread (if you live outside Canada), it can take anywhere from 7-15 days for your status to change from 'Evaluation in Progress' to 'Evaluation Complete & Mailed'. Then depending on where you live, the courier with the final report will take 3-4 days to reach you.
(If you chose the regular post option instead of courier then it can take anywhere from 10 days to even a month more for the hard copy to reach)

sorry my mistake
I want to know that I submitted 200 Canadian dollars plus 75 Canadian dollars for courier delivery.
so they provide me with a tracking code to track right?
and on regular mail, 75 Canadian dollars is not included ?
please guide.
Yes, you're right. If you've paid 75 CAD that means you've opted for courier delivery, which is pretty fast, 3-4 days usually. And yes, 9/10 times they provide you with a tracking code.
