ECA

[Dave1]

Hi All,

My wife and I were about to start the process to migrate to Canada. We were about a bit confused on the ECA process. We are migrating as accountants and my qualifications are;

1) Chartered Institute of Management Accountants UK (CIMA)
2) Master of Business Administration from Cardiff Metropolitan University (MBA)

We looked at the document required specified by WES and they require us to submit copies of our certificates as well as request the Educational Institutes to directly send our transcripts. Is my understanding correct?

If anyone can simplify the process, We would be extremely grateful.

Thanks in Advance.

Yes, that is indeed the process.

At Bombay University, they don't send the transcripts directly to WES, but instead hand them over to you in sealed envelopes which you have to courier to WES at your own cost.

But, apart from that the process is well defined and standard.

The guidelines are different for different institutions. Once you make payment on WES site, you will get an email with a checklist which states what all documents needs to be sent and how. The email comes with the subject 'WES - Application Received (Automatic E-mail, Please do not reply) - Reference # (XXXXXX)'.

Having said that, the general guideline is stated below.

Arrange for the documents to be sent directly to WES by the university or autonomous college responsible for conducting the examinations.

-OR-

If the document is given to you to forward to WES, it must be attested & dated and placed in an official sealed envelope that is signed or stamped across the back flap by the appropriate authentication officer at the university or autonomous college that conducted the examination. If the envelope has been opened or there is no stamp or signature across the back flap, the document will not be accepted by WES.
