Hi all i am from India. I Have completed my bachelors in 2007 and after that i started working with international companies i have work experience of around 8 years. I started studying MBA IN 2016 which will be coompleted in 2018 april may. I Want to apply for Express entry. But i am confused what to mention in my profile about my qualification. Should i mention bachelors as there is no option of pursuing masters. And if i get my CREDENTIAL EVALUATION OF BACHELORS can i update my EE PROFILE AFTER COMPLETING MASTERS. SURELY I WILL GET THE EVALUATION OF MASTERS AGAIN.

you can submit an EE profile with the bachelors ECA for now. and update the profile when you receive a masters ECA.
Thanks for the prompt reply.
So will they give me extra points after i produce my masters documents. And is it a concern that i am completing my masters after a long gap of 8 years

yes. here is how education is scored. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/express-entry/grid-crs.asp

no thats not a problem as long as 1. wes evaluates and gives it an ECA, 2. you can justify the gap (say you were working, unemployed, maternity etc etc) 3. are not claiming work experience points for the same timeframe (you cannot be studying and working at the same time - both have to be full time)

Okay i got it. They dont count work experience with studies.

1 more thing i am confused with is. ShouLd i appear in IELTS EXAM and then send the docs for ECA or it doesnt have to do anythng with ECA and does my spouse also have to get her ECA done if we are applying together? And does she also have to appear for ielts?

Wes and ielts are not related to each other. However both must be completed in order to submit your EE profile. So it's preferable you start both process simultaneously as they could take anywhere between 30-60 days .

If you spouse is accompanying you to Canada then it's ideal that she has her ielts and ECA . This adds to the CRS scores.higher the score better and faster possibility of getting an invite for PR.

You can get an idea of what the score will look like by filling the questionnaire here.

All documents sent to Wes must be attested and in stamped sealed envelopes. This is the first mandatory requirement or else your documents get rejected. Follow the instructions from Wes carefully. They have clearly mentioned which years should be attested from college and what should be from univ.

2. Wes ref has to be mentioned on all envelopes. For extra precaution you can mention it at the back of every document.
