Can anybody explain me the various steps of WES and duration of time for each step. For example, my documents were received by WES on 30-Mar-2015. Since 02-Apr-2015, it is showing as "document received, review under progress". What would be the next steps and how much time for each step.
 
Some feedback here on the timelines for ECA processing with WES.

WES state a standard processing time of 20 business days from when all of your documents have been received. So from the stage of 'Documents Received - Review in Progress" it should change to "Evaluation in Progress". Then as I saw, and others have reported, once your status is updated with an estimated completion date it means your report should be completed within around 3-5 days, irrespective of what the estimated completion date says. You'll probably also notice that the estimated completion date will disappear which means your report will likely be done in around 1-2 days from that point.

This is all based on my experience and that reported by other forum members, so don't take it as gospel. Hope it helps though.
