My WES states "Diploma (two years) and bachelor's degree (four years)

Depends... did the diploma come before or after the Bachelor's? Are the 2 years of the diploma part of the bachelors, or completely separate (e.g. did you study combined total of 4 years or 6 years?)

Unfortunately, WES disagreed with your diploma being the equiv. of 3 years, so I think the highest level you can claim is Bachelor's degree.

The "two or more" definition was updated in August -
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/eca-conversion.asp

"ECA assessment results:

A three-year or more certificate, diploma, or degree

PLUS any of the results in the sections below (not including secondary/high school), or:

  • Post-Bachelor's Certificate
  • Post-undergraduate certificate
  • Post-Bachelor's Diploma
  • Post-undergraduate diploma
  • Graduate Certificate
  • Graduate Certificate with a focus in [area of concentration]
  • Postgraduate certificate
  • Postgraduate Diploma
  • Graduate Diploma with a focus in [area of concentration]
  • Graduate diploma
  • two-year Postgraduate Diploma, specializing in [name of discipline]
  • two-year Bachelor’s after degree with a focus in [area of concentration]
  • one-year Postgraduate Certificate in [name of discipline]
  • Dual Bachelor’s degree (four years)"

Oh no.. :(
i think i should reach out to WES.
Because my diploma as for 3 years and degrees was 3 years too.
Also WES sent my report on june 12 2017, are you aware the timeframe that i need to go back to WES
