EE question - ARE YOU GETTING YOUR WIFE'S ECA DONE FOR THE SAKE OF 8-10 POINTS?

[vaibkv]

Hi,

I have my Ielts and ECA ready. My wife has also taken her Ielts. But today I learned that getting her ECA done might fetch a max of 8 points for me. So I am thinking is it worth getting it done, because time is also a factor here since 2073, 2074 (ones I am eligible for) fill up relatively fast.

So, how are/did you guys going/went about it?

I opt not to go for my hubby's ECA and took a risk of 8 points!!

Cool. Ya, I think time is an important factor too here. How much did you guys score out of 600 or yet apply?

Already applied with 438 points. Getting an extra 8 didn't seem to make much of a difference to my case.

me too it doesnt make to much diferrence in my cause we have to pay around 150 dollars to my wifes's university for the transcripst plus the 200 dollars for WES so i think those 8 points are too expensive !!!! and only could give us 8 points!!! better practice more english!
