Hi guys,

I'd like some advice. I recently submitted my PR application after getting the ITA. My NOC is medical laboratory technologist (32120) which falls under the health category. However, I received this message last week

"Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has reviewed your application for permanent residence. We have determined that your application does not meet the requirements of a complete application as described in sections 10 and 12.01 of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations. Your application is rejected for being incomplete and therefore, was not put into processing. Specifically, your application does not include the following elements: An acceptable Education Credential Assessment (ECA) was not included with your electronic application. If your primary occupation is specialist physician (NOC 31100), specialists in surgery (31101) or general practitioner/family physician (NOC 31102), you are required to obtain an ECA from the Medical Council of Canada for your primary medical diploma. Applications submitted without these mandatory documents cannot be considered complete. Please visit our website for more information about the required document: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/immigrate-canada/express entry/documents/education-assessed.html".

I really don't understand what went wrong with the application because I had my master's degree program evaluated by WES and the reference number for verification was put on my express entry profile. I have however sent an email with the attached WES report to IRCC hoping to get reconsidered because I really don't know what went wrong with the application. If anyone can give some advice on how to proceed or the reason, I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks

You were required to include the ECA itself. This is a mandatory document and this is why your application was cancelled as being incomplete. Requesting reconsideration was the right next step. This may or may not work. If it doesn't, then you'll need to set up a new EE profile and wait for ITA again.

Just read the refusal reason more carefully. I think your issue may be that you got ECA done through WES.
