Same thing happened to me, I didn't want anyone in my office to know so I told HR that I need a reference letter for an international program that I applied for and I specified the information I wanted them to include in the letter. I also told them to address it 'To whom it may concern'.
Unless your HR are aproko people, they shouldn't ask you for additional info.

Imagine when your Boss's wife is the HRM, what should one do in such case.

i) if I have MSc, BSc(through direct entry) and ND, lastly, Neco ...which of these will be required to be sent to WES for evaluation.
ii) My spouse and I graduated from the same institution, can we pack our credentials together to save cost. Also can we do the same for our Neco results.

I think the problem is that you're not ready to read. If you really are serious about this journey, you MUST invest some time doing a lot of research to make informed decisions or you pay an immigration lawyer to do the entire thing on your behalf.

FAMILY of 4

ECA
This journey started in November 2017. My wife and I (both lawyers) did our ECA with WES. My ECA came out a few days before we wrote IELTS. Once the IELTS result was released, without my spouse’s ECA, we had a CRS of 442. The cut off for April 25, 2018 was 441 and we received our first ITA. Fast-forward to June, 2018, I stumbled upon this thread on Nairaland at about past 1a.m. (cannot remember what kept me awake till that time) and on page 1, I saw the advise that lawyers should use IQAS and not WES. Engaged members on thread and there was a consensus that it is always better to err on the side of caution. Rejected the first ITA on this basis and for other reasons. Registered for IQAS and commenced the long wait for the ECA from IQAS which took three months.

Medicals
We knew my spouse had a history of TB from about 21 years back and we declared that in our PR application. Hence, a few days after we had our upfront medicals, we received a mail from IRCC asking for further medical examination for myself (my BP was slightly high on the day of the medicals) and my spouse. Mine was quite straight forward. But we had to wait about three months for the results of my spouse’s sputum test to be ready and then a repeat x-ray.

POF
POF was deposited in mutual funds which I opened sometime in April 2018. The entire POF sum consisted of Esusu money (disclosed as such to IRCC with evidence of establishment of Esusu in my office (E-mail thread)), sale of my wife’s car, sale of a land, gift deed from brother-in-law and my father. We put all this information in a tabular format and provided 8 months statement of account highlighting inflows and outflows to the mutual funds account. POF was also supported with 25% of the balance in my RSA.

PPR
Repeat X-ray for my spouse was carried out on January 18, 2019 at the Consultant Practice. I remember that from January 18, 2019 and for about 7 days thereafter Ottawa was raining PPRs. I was prayerfully expecting ours too. However, on January 22, 2019, we received an ADR letter dated January 21, 2019 in our MyCIC inbox (addressed to me) stating there were some outstanding medicals and that I should contact the Panel Physician. We were given 30 days to provide evidence that we had completed all medical examinations. I rushed to the Consultant Practice and obtained another upfront medical sheet for myself indicating that all medical exams have been completed. However, I was informed that my wife’s repeat x-ray results had not been uploaded and I was told to call on January 24, 2019 for an update. On January 24, 2019, my spouse and I went to the Consultant Practice. The same story. Result not yet updated but this time the excuse was that the Panel Physician was not in the country and, as such, the results cannot be uploaded because she had a role to play in getting that done. In fact, I was informed that a message has been sent to her and that she was not responding to her messages. I remember I got back to the office and a colleague of mine who had already landed asked me to put the Panel Physician’s matter in prayer. I thought to myself that why waste my prayers when I know that God has perfected it all. In fact, the spirit kept nagging me that the ADR letter was supposed to be PPR letter and that the Consultant Practice was just the hindrance. I cannot remember what I was searching for in my Yahoo inbox. But I stumbled on a mail I had written to the Consultant Practice to book an appointment for the upfront medicals in October, 2018. Something nudged me immediately to do a mail to the Consultant Practice. I was just hoping someone high up there will see my mail. I poured my anger into that e-mail, I must confess. Lo and behold, the Panel Physician responded to my e-mail within an hour and promised that the results will be uploaded.

I travelled to Abuja for work the next day on January 25, 2019. So I was in Abuja when my spouse called to tell me that the results had been uploaded as promised. She decided to wait for my return before uploading the updated Upfront Medical Form she obtained from the hospital. My return to Lagos was a miracle. A colleague in the office who was supposed to book my return ticket to Lagos actually booked “Lagos-Abuja” as my return ticket. It was not funny. By the time I found out, it was not possible to get on another plane that was leaving for Lagos early enough. I got a flight for 7.30pm. By the time I got to the airport, I met some of my colleagues who had departed for the airport since before Noon still waiting for their delayed flight. I told myself, I will get to Lagos today. Once again, my God of Hands of Fire showed up. My flight (the last flight or so) was called on time and I left my colleagues (whose flight was supposed to have been earlier) there in the airport.

Got to Lagos and hurriedly got to scanning and uploading the documents. The moment we opened our MyCIC account, we saw MEDICAL PASSED. My wife collapsed in relief. MIRACLE ONE, IT WAS AS IF THE VO WAS WAITING FOR THE HOSPITAL TO UPLOAD THE RESULTS. We sha uploaded the ADR even at that point ADR has become moot. This was still January 25, 2019. I remember telling my spouse that I expect PPR by February 5, 2019. She disagreed with me saying it will land on February 2, 2019. Of course, I totally disagreed because she had this penchant of wanting every important event to happen on her birthday-February 2. Finally, she prophesied (without knowing), she jokingly said “God will shame both of us and bring 2 and 5 together and give us PPR today January 25, 2019”.

Hence, I woke up at past 3am. Checked my e-mail. Nothing. I was sad but kept faith with February 5, 2019 on the horizon. I was sad because my spirit kept telling that the VO working on our file was just waiting for us to act so that he can finish his work. In fact, a witness in one of my cases (who I happen to have met at the Consultant Practice when we went for the upfront medical) had told me that much also just a day before. In any event, I went back to bed. Few minutes after, my wife wakes me up shouting “VFS!!! Check our CIC account!”. My people, it was Pret Pour Visa!!!

My people, we went from no MEP at over three months post-AOR to MEP and PPR on the same day!!! I know that the grace and mercy that found us, will find everyone too. All of our journeys will be different. But we will all get there!!! Keep the hope and faith alive always.

Congratulations to your family! We shall join you soonest to in Jesus Christ name. Amen!
