Claiming Canadian education only

Hello,

When I applied with my spouse, we only claimed her Canadian diploma. She does have a bachelor degree in our country. But after calculating our CRS, we found out that choosing "two or more degree" only gives us 3 more points so we decided not to bother with WES and just go with her Canadian diploma only. In our EE profile, her highest education is "2-year diploma" but not "two or more degree".

Now we got the ITA, when filling the form it asks for her personal history. Should we put her bachelor degree there? Do we still need to proof its validity by doing the WES stuff?

You only provide proof of the education listed in education history which gets her points. Just put her time spent doing her degree in personal history. You won't have to provide evidence for this.

If it's a Canadian diploma, you need ECA. Only a Canadian masters degree and PhD is exempt from ECA.
Why would a Canadian diploma need a Canadian conversion?

Thanks kryt0n! That being said, do I need to provide a scan of her bachelor degree certificate?
