Can some1 please reply to this? regarding the attestation of O and A level results from the cambridge university
WES now requires secondary education certificates attested too.
The other two organisations, ICAS and CES, they dont require secondary education documents.
So can can any1 please help me with this, whether WES is the best for getting the ECA or we can try ICAS or CES too?

Dear fellows,
I have two queries:

1
Kindly tell me what is the attestation procedure for a degree which someone has got from abroad (UK).
For example in my case my BSc engg is from UET, Pakistan but later I did Masters from UK.
Masters program was of 1 year full time (2011-2012).

2
I have done O/A-levels so what is the procedure for its attestation. Like do I need to attest IBCC equivalence or from British Council or what!!

Your detailed reply would be highly appreciated.
Regards,

Regarding O & A levels:

What I have read from this forum....someone shared their experience that he just got the equivalence made for both and sent that,along with photocopies of O/A levels result to WES and his status read application in process so yay I'm done.
I messaged him to ask if he got his ECA but got to replies yet.

On the other hand, I bugged WES ALOT with it. Kept emailing them because I myself have done O and A levels.
What they have to say is
"Please visit the link below for document requirement for Cambridge International Examinations/British Council

http://www.wes.org/required/UKExamBodies.html"

Meaning, we need to get the certifying statement for our O, A'levels from Cambridge, which is a 4 weeks procedure and 33 pounds for each statement, O levels and A levels separately. Cambridge sends these statements directly to WES.

Now this is confusing, as WES requires something else but approved the equivalence for O and A levels for some1..??
If you want to be on the safe side, go with WES instructions that I have stated above i.e the certifying statement for both to be sent to them by Cambridge.
But you will still be needing the equivalence for the HEC attestation of your bachelors degree.

I have also done O&A levels from Pakistan and am doing WES evaluation. I am also not in Pakistan.
What I have done was to send my mamu to fbise building in Islamabad with O&A levels equivalence certificates.
The IBCC took them for verification which took just 1 day. Then got it sealed and stamped in an envelope and had it couriered to their courier address.
I have read in the following thread, the reply of omarlassen, successfully getting this requirement out of the way by following what I did.
canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/pakistan-hec-sealed-envelop-procedure-t143899.250.html

I will update later, if it worked. And I frankly dont know whatelse to do about it otherwise.

If you have done O&A Levels from Pakistan. First you need the equivalence certificates. Then you have to get the photocopies of the equivalence certificates attested by IBCC. Then get it sealed and stamped to be couriered to WES.
As I have mentioned in the above post that some members have done the same and have got this hurdle out of the way.
I have also sent them the IBCC attested, sealed photocopies.
I will confirm later whether it got the process rolling.

The process to send O&A levels certificates verification from Cambridge and all is a requirement only for UK based people. This is what I think and have gathered from the knowledge in this website shared by other people

By the Grace of Allah, my evaluation at WES has finally started.
I did the following 2 steps to get past the hurdle of this SSC/HSSC requirement for O&A levels:-
1. IBCC sealed & stamped attested photocopies of both O&A levels in a single envelop. I did not attach that transcript form for either. And sent it through Leopard Courier.
2. Sent O&A level photocopies of both certificates in a separate envelop.

I hope it is clear now for everyone.

Hi Wahab,

I did the same, but WES has changed the status to "Not acceptable". I called them as well and they have clearly instructed me to send the results to WES directly from University of Cambridge?? That will cost me (36 pounds) for each exam session plus that will take 1 complete month.

I am completely devastated. Can you pls tell that while you filled your educational details, what did you specify for the awarding instituition name? Whether you wrote "Edexcel or University of Cambridge" or IBCC Pakistan.

Pls let me know ASAP, your info might help me.

Regards,
Arq

Hi Wahab,

WES requires IBCC to send them the documents directly as per my info. Can you please confirm whether we can send it ourselves through courier like you did? What shall we put in return address? thanks

Dear Wahab,

firstly congratulations on successful evaluation from WES. i am also a prospective applicant and stuck in the same situation like other fellow members. Please guide how to fill WES online application form. If we get the equivalence from IBCC then Should we mention Matric and Intermediate in Secondary and Higher Secondary Education or just stick to O and A Level? your timely reply is highly appreciated as the deadline for submitting immigration application is running out.

Regards,
Ali
