Hi Selva,

Based on the previous posts in this forum, It seems WES application has to be created like mentioned below.

Let's say,
Name in Passport: "SELVA SUBRAMANIAN"
Name / Credentials in Degree certs: "Selva. S"

This should be filled in WES ECA application form as,

Profile Name: First Name: "SELVA", Last Name: "SUBRAMANIAN" ( as same as in Passport)
Name to be given in Credential section( "Your Education"): First Name: "Selva", Last Name: "S" (initials not expanded)

It looks like Passport name and WES profile name should be same. Refer "Varunaimar" and "DEEPCUR" answers in this same post for further reference.

Note: I was also in the same confusion. Reading the above post clarified a lot and this is what i am going to follow for WES ECA.

Thanks,
Anand.

Hello,

My last name is expanded in my passport. But In transcripts, it is just initials as mentioned in below example.

Passport Name : KARTHIK PALANI
Academic certificate Name : KARTHIK P

I got the transcript from my university, do i need to enclose name affidavit from indian consulate or something else to indicate KARTHIK P is same person as KARTHIK PALANI along with my passport copy and transcript before sending it to WES or Just enclosing passport copy and letter to WES would be sufficient.

Actually, i don't have different name but it's just that my last name is not expanded in my academic certificate, instead only initial is present as stated above.

Let me know your opinion, my concern was WES will issue ECA report with same name mentioned in my academic certificate. So, will this cause problem when i upload my application in CIC website.

Some of them mentioned this will not cause any problem and enclosing passport copy would be sufficient but i just wanted to double confirm before sending my transcripts to WES.

Please let me know your view on this.

My name is Shreya Kumari Y M. I would like to immigrate to Canada. Last year end, I had sent my Bachelor's and Master's transcripts to WES. Post evaluating WES forwarded the report saying my name as per Mark Sheets 'Shreya Kumari Y M' is different from Passport 'Shreya Kumari Yelahanka Madan'. In Passport, my initials 'Y M' has been elaborated due to which my assessment is on hold and WES is asking me to change my name in all my Mark sheets to 'Shreya Kumari Yelahanka Madan' (as per passport). I have an affidavit stating both the names 'Shreya Kumari Y M' and 'Shreya Kumari Yelahanka Madan' are one and the same and WES is not considering the Notary. But, to do the same Universities is asking me to rectify first in SSLC and PUC Marks sheets. Would you be able to give any suggestions on how to pass the WES assessment?
Hi shreya,
Were you able to resolve this issue and apply for ECA successfully. I'm facing exact problem as you in academic certificates and other identification documents. Could please share your solution.
