IQAS ECA timeline tracking

[CNP]

Hi

I applied IQAS assessment service on Dec 22nd 2018 and my courier service delivered them on 5th of Jan 2019. The web login as per today says "submitted", when I called them they said that it has not been yet entered into the system (not received by them). What should I do? It has been 2 months now. All my universities has sent the certificates also

You need to understand the process and timelines of IQAS. Once your application is delivered, IQAS takes almost 3 months (as observed now a days) to acknowledge the receipt of your application. Same is the case with your educational documents. Currently, applications and educational documents received by IQAS during last week of Nov/first week of Dec are being acknowledged. You can calculate your estimated time accordingly. Once they put your file in system, you will see status changed to "In line for processing". From this date, your 20 weeks start. Hope this helps. Best luck!!

It is too long as it will take almost 9 months but IQAS says that maximum processing time is 18 weeks that is around 4 to 5 months

Your processing time of 20 weeks start when the status changes to "In line for processing", not from the date your application is delivered. Please see here - https://www.alberta.ca/iqas-immigration-apply.aspx#toc-6

Wow ! So, basically for documents delivered to them in January this year, we are looking at getting the ECA in September.

May not take that long. You will have to be patient with IQAS!

Does IQAS ever send your documents for verification the way WES does? I am having a nightmare with WES and don't want to have the same happen with IQAS. I'm from Mumbai University.

Hello guys, first appreciate for your all responses.I have completed my bachelor assessment via WES and got as 4-years bachelor degree qualification, however, WES won't recognise my 6 months pg cert from U.K after grant. Therefore, I am considering to send my Bachelor+PG cert together to IQAS assessment for claiming Two or more diploma.....Do I have a chance to get extra points? Also how long the whole process takes for me ?. Best Regards

I don't think so that 6 month courses are recognized however if you wish to get assessed then dont send you bachelors again. For ref. Check Alberta iqas website.
Complete process 6 months if you start today

IQAS is taking maximum files to Final Review stage. But no file after 6th Feb Final Review has moved to an advanced stage.

Hey did you receive any response from iqas regarding receipt of docs ? How many days it took ? Because its been more than two months now since I sent my docs to them. I sent the docs on dec still no response from iqas.

I got the acknowledgement on 18th of January which makes it around 90 days from 30th Oct.
