I need to know how to get my documents verified for WES
They require Inter certificate to be attested by IBCC, Karachi and IBCC requires that the first the certificate should be verified by the issuing board. I am from Karachi but I live in Saudi Arabia. My Inter is from Federal Board Islamabad. Should I get it directly verified and attested by Federal Board Islamabad or should I go directly to IBCC in Karachi?
Can anyone help pls...

WES accepts credentials from mostly public sector universities in Pakistan.
If your organization of study is not in WES's list, leave it. Go for ICAS or CES (Uni of Toronto). CES or ICAS will take longer, but they will do the job. Many Pakistanis' have received positive ECA report from CES. Perhaps from ICAS as well. ICAS's policies are more "rigid". CES accepts credentials from a wide range of organizations from Pakistan.
Many Pakistanis' who's organization of study is listed in WES's "Accepted list of Universities from Pakistan" have been able to use WES's services.
