Dear Friends..

I have recently had applied for my ECA at WES.

I had mentioned 2 Academic Credentials. (Graduation and Post Graduation)

However, there was a slight mistake in the spelling of my father's name among certificates for credential 1 and credential 2.

In other words, my credential 1, had my fathers spelling as ZARAR. my credential 2, had my fathers spelling as ZARRAR.

Basically, there is a difference of an alphabet R in my fathers name. Whereas my family name and given name as spelled correctly.

In my ECA, the spelling of my father has come as ZARAR and not ZARRAR. Rest all the names / spellings are correct.

Do you think this is going to create a problem? Will this affect my immigration application?

Please guide me?? some earlier posts mentioned that this would not be an issue and would be acceptable.

I am confused and need your guidance..

Please help.

Thanking you in anticipation

I got my ECA report. They made a spelling mistake and they said that they will correct it. Now I am waiting for the correct one. I don't want to take a risk and want it correct. Therefore, I asked them to send the ECA report with the correct details.

Please don't type in caps.

Ok, I have also written to them regarding this. But the thing is, there is no mistake in my name spelling as per passport. They are spelled correctly. Only my Father's name has a slight mistake. In general what is the worst case scenario? Will this be a problem later ? will CIC Accept this since my name has no mistake.. please guide..

If you have an option to correct mistakes, might as well correct it. Why do you want to submit anything when you know it's incorrect.

That's what sir. I have written it to them immediately as I got the report . Probably within 20 mins of getting an email from them I reverted to them. What if WES doesn't correc the Spelling mistake? Then what is to be done?? Can any one guide me? Is there any possible way to check if this is acceptable? Or it's going to be out right rejected. Experts please advice

Whenever I tried to call them,'we can't get thru as all the executives are busy and they ask us to contact them via email.
To all my emails sent to them I have got a standard automated reply. These 2 options are out. Now how to reach them. How resolve this issue. I'm really stressed. Although I did read a copulle of earlier threads regarding this. Where people have said that this is exceptable.. as long as the family name and given name of the applicant is spelled correctly. Let me find those posts and provide you link.
