I got my ECA report from WES mentioned that

CANADIAN EQUIVALENCY SUMMARY
Bachelor's degree (three years)

Credential: Bachelor of Computer Science Canadian Equivalency : Diploma (2 Years)
Credential: Master of Computer Science Canadian Equivalency : Bachelors Degree (3 Years)

Now in express entry i have following two choices:-

1) Bachelor's degree OR a three or more year program at a university, college, trade or technical school, or other institute (112 points)

2) Two or more certificates, diplomas, or degrees. One must be for a program of three or more years (119 points)

I am confused which choice should I select. Please help.

I would have thought the second option. You have two credentials and one is 3 years, so you'd get the extra points. If it was for me that's what I'd pick.

I'm in a similar situation, I have 2 diplomas, one is B.Sc. (4 years) and another one P.E. (2 years).
Following CIC rules it's 2 diplomas, when one is more than 3 years.

I just got answer from WES: "Please be advised that it is World Education Services policy to only list the highest credential at the equivalency summary of the evaluation report".

I fail to understand Why is masters being treated as bachelors equivalent? ( from which country you pursued your academics.
