Hello all,

I got ITA last week. I have doubt in Education History. I have done MBA, for which I have ECA done.

Now, I need some advice on below doubt:

Under Education History, it is mentoned "We will assess XXXX's secondary and post-secondary periods of study for eligibility for Express

Entry, and use them to calculate XXXXX's score. You can tell us about each period of study by filling in the fields below."

So, here what they exactly asking for, my ECA report or all my educational credentials i.e. 10, 10+2, Graduation and Masters.

And if in case all are needed, do I have to get ECA for all.

Help is much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Hi all,
just a quick question:
what documents do we need to submit in the Education section?

The ECA report, scans of the original diploma for the degree you're claiming points for, and its translations, right? What about scans of transcripts and their translation?

In my Opinion
you can add those too... it is nothing wrong in adding docs that supports your education...

ECA+Org Deg+Org Deg Translation are mandatory and rest other docs that can support your education
 
Thanks for the quick reply!
Wasn't there a limit on the size of submitted documents though? I remember something about 4 Mb... I might be wrong - couldn't find anything in the CIC instructions or on the forum.

Yes, there is a size limit. It is 4mb.

I had same problem, all my edu docs came upto 7mb... (I went for color scans)..
Then i used PDF Reducer tool to reduce the size ... it went to 2mb from 7mb... the quality almost the same...
 
Oh, great! Didn't know about that tool. Thanks for the advice!

No Problem.

Pile up all the docs in order and create a single PDF.... then use the tool to reduce your file size....

I think you know this :)
 
:) I do, but I appreciate the detailed instructions, anyway!
