Hi Members,

I am currently updating my EE profile with my spouse's ECA details and have the below query.

The report in nutshell is as below :

1. Masters in Business Administration : Canada equivalency = Master's
2. Bachelors in Commerce : Canada equivalency = Bachelor's (4 years)
3. Masters in Commerce : Canada equivalency = Postgraduate diploma (1 year)

I am confused as to what to choose in EE profile for # 3 education credential! I am leaning towards Two or more degrees but help would be appreciated.

Also, how much time it takes for the updated scores to reflect in my profile as I did some initial changes today afternoon but my points are still to be reflect the increase.

Regards,

VSG

Two or more degrees doesn't get you as many points as a Masters. Since the ECA says that she was assessed as having the equivalent of a Masters, go with that.

What does it say at the top of the report?

The summary says Master's. However for EE profile, it asking for Canada equivalency for each individual education and I am confused in that, I am pretty sure that I would get points for Master's as it is the highest education recognised.

Put the equivalent for each degree listed. Masters for the MBA, 1 year Graduate for the MComm, and Bachelors for the BComm.

Sorry for asking again but no one has responded against this:

Does it take time to reflect the change in scores after making and submitting changes? If yes, aprrox what timespan we are looking at?

Its almost 24 hrs when I made these changes but my CRS scores are the same still with Spouse education still showing as 0.Yes, I have transmitted the changes made.

It does take 24 hours or longer, at times. If you've done everything correctly at your end, give the system time. There is no draw till Friday at least so you have a lot of time.

Thanks Asivad. I just hope it updates before this friday's draw there is any. Also, against my OP, I have selected One year program, degree for the post grad diploma education, hope it's correct.

You can choose to exclude everything except that MBA and you'll still get 10 points there.

For the PG Diploma, choose 'Two or more...' option.

1)What should be chosen as Field of Study for MBA (Finance)? Is it Business/Commerce ? or something else while filling EE profile ?

2)I have both B.E [Bachelor's] and M.B.A [Masters].
My WES says :- Bachelors degree (4 yrs) and Master's Degree

So while filing my B.E [Bachelor's] details in EE , I have following doubts in the fields.

Level of Education :- Bachelors ---> No doubts
Level of Education Shown in ECA :- ---> Should I choose Master's or Bachelor's ? I dono what to put since my ECA says "Bachelors degree (4 yrs) and Master's Degree "

I do not believe we have a specific Finance option to choose from, so go with Business/Commerce, I have done the same.

Select Master's for MBA and Bachelors for Bachelors, you will be getting points for Masters anyways

is three years bachelor of commerce degree from india equals to four years bachelor degree of canada??
No. But 3 years of Bachelors AND 2 years of Masters degree May be equal to a single 4 year Canadian Bachelors degree.
