Thank you 21Goose for this information, this is very helpful !
I have one more question. Do we require to get an evaluation for Bachelors degree as well after getting MBA degree as evaluated Master's degree by CES? I am confused because the person in below post says that bachelors degree evaluation would be required later for FSW (I am not sure what is FSW at this point) If someone can explain this in detail, it would be helpful.
Thank you in advance !
You only have to get your highest degree validated. However, there are some countries where WES or other agencies will ask to see your undergrad degrees before they agree to assess your Master's. India is one of these countries.
You do
not have to pay for two ECAs. You simply apply to WES for your Master's ECA, and they will respond by telling you that they cannot assess your master's without also looking at your undergrad transcripts and diploma, and will tell you how to send the documents they need.
You still only get one ECA (and that's all you need).
For your express entry profile, you just need to add your Master's under Education History to get maximum points. Your bachelors will go under Personal History and you won't get any points for it (and nor will you need to provide an ECA).
So no, you do not need to get your bachelors validated with a separate ECA, but you will probably need to send those documents to WES before they agree to look at your Master's.
If you had a Master's from the US/UK/many other countries, you wouldn't need to send undergrad paperwork. There's too much fraud in India so they are extra careful with Indian degrees.
