:) hi I am looking into starting the immigration process and have a few questions if anyone can help.
Firstly when you need to get your qualifications certified can I send them to the university's myself? Or does my exam board need to do this for me?

Secondly at what Point of the visa process did you do your medical and police checks.
The reason I ask is because if it is at the start the validation time could have run out.

And same question about the ilets is that the start of the visa process? I no that it is valid for longer but would just like to no as much as I can before I start


Thanks :)

You would have to check the WES website to see what they prefer about documents from your university. For some universities, they allow you to get it in sealed envelopes to you and then send over to them, but for others, you have to tell your university to send it directly to them. There is a WES form which you need to include with your application which needs to be signed by officials in university (again check WES site for details).

Some prefer to do it prior to invitation some after (as there is validity on both of those docs). Its your preference. Police checks depends on the countries where you get it from, for example, US takes about 3 months or so (in such case you can submit a letter of explanation for the delay).

You have to give IELTS before the start since your express entry pool (CRS) points depend on the results of your IELTS test. (I believe the same holds for the 67 points criteria).

Good luck!! :)
