Important question about WES!

[hassanbale]

Im about to sumbit my documents, my initial WES certificate was issued in 2014, i obtained a duplicate in 2017, can i use the duplicate when submitting my documents post ITA??

WES clearly states that validity of report is 5 years. Since your report is more than 5 years old it may no longer be valid. https://www.wes.org/ca/eca/

Also IRCC will ask you for a copy if any documentation is not what is required this delays the processing of the application and adds months to the process. So you can try get new ECA and submit with your application

Thank you, some people are saying duplicate WES is treated like the original, and given that it was issued on 2017, it should be valid till 2022, can someone advise?
