Yeah....I'm pretty much waiting here in line too. No updates as such since 13th Feb.
In general Nigerians have a faster timeline compared to Asian countries
Hope you completed the biometrics...
It's pretty much past 4 to 5 months for most Sri Lankan applicants to receiving PPR and can be delayed with subsequent ADR requests from IRCC

Yeah true.. :-(

Oh I followed your tips and got an appointment online the very next day and the biometrics were updated on the same day itself.
VFS Sri-Lanka has very quick service. :)

Hey guys, I'm waiting on my Master's certificate (graduated but the certificate is still on its way). I do have my Bachelor's certificates ready.

I was wondering, can I proceed with the evaluation of my Bachelor's certificate with WES, without adding in my Masters details (because I'm not sure how the exact dates will appear in the Masters certificate); after I receive the Masters certificate, can I add that as well and proceed with the evaluation using the same WES account/membership.

I tried contacting WES for this, but they gave such a generic answer that did not answer my question. Hoping one of you will have more info.

I think the best option would be to send all the certificates you need to be evaluated at once. There is no point of sending one certificate now and another later, ultimately it will take the same time to evaluate because it all needs to come together in one report. Additionally, as far as I know it is not possible to send one certificate now and another later in order to get it in one report. But not sure on that.

Just seems pointless to me.. Masters will of course derive you more points than a Bachelor, so whatever the dates issue get it evaluated anyway. If its not valid in the report, you can only refer to your Bachelor when you apply.

This is what I was worried about.

I understand the rest of your points, but my worry is that my Bachelor's university will take a long time to process and send the certificate to WES, which is why I wanted to start on that early, giving it a headstart before the Masters certificate. Anyways, thanks for your reply.

Hi all,

I received my PPR earlier this week (AOR Nov 20th) and submitted my passport too. Is anyone here post PPR and received the COPR ?. Any idea how long the Colombo IRCC office takes to process it?

Thank you,

Thank you,
Once passport is submitted you can get it within few days. When you submit the passport, you can track it. When you collect passport, you get COPR

Hello,
I want to clarify a small thing.
My GF has completed her BA (special) in Sabaragamuwa University and she has a one-year Diploma in English from the same Uni.
So will that diploma recognize as a valid one on WES?

Thanks.

It takes 6-10 days for the process.
