Most people I know have used WES. Whether they are fast or not doesn't depend on the agency but the nature of your degree and where you received it.

Thank you.

I understand now.

Do you know which service would be faster? I'm seeing here WES, CES, ICAS, IQAS, ICES.

From what I have seen in this thread, WES can be slow.

Thank you.



I got my ECA from WES in two months. My spouse got it in two weeks.

I did my bachelors in my home country and masters in UK. My spouse has studied in the US.

So based on my experience it would seem where you've studied matters more when it comes to evaluation.

Did you have to arrange for the institution to send your transcript or you just sent a copy of your transcript?

I see that might delay things, waiting for my university to send the transcript ;o

Depends on the country where you got your degree. WES has different requirements for different countries. For some, they allow you to send it and for some it asks that your university sends it.

If you send the documents you can pay express fee and send the documents faster. If your institution is sending the documents, they might use regular service which will take longer.

Are you applying from INDIA?

In my case, I collected transcripts from my college(INDIA) and sent the documents using express post.
 
hello everyone,
Io have sent my document for ECA. it shows evaluation in progress. Without ECA can I create my express entry profile and submit it in a pool. Express entry profile asks for the some reference number of ECA? is it require for the EE profile.
Thanks in advance.

You cannot create your profile and enter the pool without ECA. Wait for it.
 
I originally thought I could edit and enter the ECA at a later date. I answered No, figuring on changing to Yes when I got it. Wrong answer. Not eligible. Profile unable to be edited later.

That's what I got for not reading the directions carefully enough.

I did the same when I started with my application. WES was taking its own sweet time and I was getting anxious. Lesson learned!

So how much time actually WES took if for your evaluation.
Could you please tell me so I can get some idea?
thanks in advance.
