Hi everyone,

I would just like to know if my wife can get points in this category under Education Factor

Express Entry education factor
Two or more certificates, diplomas, or degrees.

She Did her WES Evaluation and below are her results


Credential(INDIA) Canada Equivalencey
Bachelor of science (three years) Bachelor's degree (four years)
Masters of Science(2 Years) Post Graduate Diploma(1 year)

However, Dropdown menu does not have this criterion, because of which I am forced to select other options. This is resulting in lower points for Express Entry. Can someone help me why this option is not appearing in the drop-down menu and how can we get points for two degrees?

What exactly needs to be entered under the Level of Education and the Canada equivalency for both of the above degrees in the form?

I guess for the Bachelors part you are clear.

For the Masters, under the education pull down choose Masters
But under the ECA Canadian Equivalent choose One year program...

Hope this helps!

Thanks for your reply. I just updated it and submitted the profile again. Would you know how long does it take to update the score?

What were your earlier points and what should you get now?...

Try to use the below calculator to see if it matches your expected points.
