He can send them the PEBC ECA of it is available to forestall the incoming refusal.

CanadianWasp:
There's a difference in this case. A pharmacy degree is only evaluated by pebc. That's the rule. There's no rule like this for lawyers.

@pcachuks

It is a known fact that WES isn't favourable when it comes to assessing Law degrees hence the use of IQAS.

A report from WES was posted to clear his doubts together with comments that the VOs used "two certificates" when taking their decision.

Find below report from IQAS and also the one from WES to see the difference in wordings(take note of the use of "Professional"

That difference is what they look at.

CanadianWasp:
IRCC states clearly "enter the highest degree for which you had an educational credential assessment if you studied outside Canada" and went on to list law as a professional degree for which a license is required to practice. In this case, your highest degree is llb which you have gone on to evaluate. IRCC didn't say it must compare with a professional degree by Canadian standards. So yeah, doesn't matterwhat WES compares it to. It is still a professional degree.

Exactly what I’m saying.. correct !!

BTW, I know some people who have gotten copr claiming points for masters with their WES bachelor's evaluation.

Hello house, I have a question and I hope someone can provide some answers.
I received a request from Accra office to submit my passport, photograph and PR fee within 15 days.
I applied for PR from Nigeria, was directed to submit to Halifax. File was transferred to Accra and have continued to be processed by Accra. I also applied for a work permit, which I have been using to work in Canada. It did not state in my letter where to send the document, but it was sent from Accra immigration office.
Anyway, I am not sure where to send my document. I was hoping that I can submit it to Ottawa since I live in Canada. I have been trying to call CIC but cannot get through. I have sent a web form but I am yet to receive a response. Has anybody been in this situation? Where should I send my document to?
Thanks

So CanadianWasp and pcachuks didn't read koonlay's post just few pages back and they're arguing that law is professional degree irrespective of how WES evaluates it? FYI, Koonlay stated how his points were reduced but lucky it was still up to the cut off.
I believe enough has been said here about Law degree and IQAS. Whoever wants to send his law degree to WES should silently do so. Don't tell us and don't come here to argue about it. Thank you.

CanadianWasp:
Fyi, no one has confirmed submitting wes evaluation for only llb and gotten points reduced to a bachelors by the VO

The average turnaround time for getting a response for CSE is 10 business days.

Send a mail to CPC-CTD-Ottawa@cic.gc.ca and Accra urgently asking for a change in visa office stating that you are presently based in Canada. You can also try calling +1 (888) 242-2100 since you are in Canada or +1 (613) 960-1000(from Outside Canada)

Congrats on your PPR

Has she ordered for GCMS notes? Do you know if her points if dropped was still above the score for invitation in that round? These are the questions you need to answer. Until there is such proof my brethren, stick with the tried and tested option please. If y'all have the money and time to waste, then by all means, go ahead and use WES. We will be here to hear the stories,
whether good or bad.

Newmum0615:
Of course not. emafav you don tey for this thread o. You suppose know this one naa.

veritas3:


Hope you know there's a difference between a professional degree and a three/four year bachelors degree and the points being claimed is not for Masters but for a First Professional Degree.

The Canadian immigration body has charged the different evaluating bodies with the task of seeing how our degree compares to theirs and when the body clearly states four years and not First professional degree that brings about conflict and you will not be with the assessing officer(s) to justify whatever.

.

CanadianWasp:
A professional degree as specified by ircc has same points with a masters degree.
The evaluation report does not have to expressly state that the degree is compared to a professional degree in law. Please see a screenshot of what CIC says regarding what the evaluation report should contain.

In any event, I'm not trying to be misleading. If you are more comfortable using IQAS, by all means go for it. But a lot of people who weren't aware of the difference in the report have gone on to use WES. What happens to them? To reevaluate with IQAS because of the difference in terminology? I think not. Again, please see excerpt from CIC regarding this.

There's this spirit of confusion that usually descends when the situation is personal. There is usually more clarity when it's another person's situation that's involved

hi i did remove all the dots but its not still coming up.anything else i can do pls?

Ifeoma77:
If IRCC wanted to be using their discretion to be awarding professional degrees instead of bachelor's degree, they won't have made the ECA a requirement in this process.
The truth here is that you people have decided on the latest shortcut you want to test and you are looking for someone to validate your decision.
I wish y'all good luck

Ronke1114:
