Please can an investment certificate in treasury bill from a new joint account suffice as POF?
Will editing EE profile, post ITA to reflect ECA completion date gotten post ITA impact in any way?
yes as long as the funds is from an account that your and your spouse jointly own and not a 3rd party.

2. I believe your ECA completion post ITA will not have any impact. I take it that the PA in your case already has ECA Pre-ITA

Let's say the accompanying spouse has ECA pre ITA. Will the PA getting ECA post ITA be detrimental in any way?

The PA MUST have ECA for you guys to have ITA. On the accompanying spouse having ECA afterwards, there is no impact at all as long as the total CRS has landed you an ITA

Although, depending on your age and other factors coupled with the current CRS cut off hanging around 43..... ,its advisable that both spouses get their ECAs

Doing this will amount to ineligibility. The VO is likely to determine that you should not have been awarded the points that earned you the ITA as having an ECA for a foreign degree is one of the requirements for Express entry and contributes over 150 points to CRS.

Considering that the accompanying spouse has a completed ECA, is it possible for the PA to use their WES Reference number with just any date whilst expressing interest to apply, and then change this date post ITA, after ECA completion?

Bear in mind that we all know the outcome of ECA's but not the completion date. So, assuming the accompanying spouse WES ECA has been completed while that of the PA is yet to be completed, can't the PA use the WES Reference No plus the "date of EOI" as ECA completion date, to revert post ITA?

IQAS, ICES but WES appears to be highly patronized amongst the three companies.

If you use an Android phone download CS scanner from play store and scan properly. Regular scanners are shorter than marriage certificate paper.

I used my phone when I need that length.

How do you mean you've spent a lot, and how is WES not helping you? They do what we ask and pay them to do for us. Plus, I wouldn't advise you to expend another funds on IQAS ECA, work with WES until you have your ECA. Tweet at them, fax them via Hellofax, call them if you can, etc., they must attend to your case.

Someone reported her that she used 25% of her pension (the max you can access a few months after you resign) to make up the POF and got a letter from the pension administrator, the person also posted a sample letter. Search the thread for it.

Can one use pension statement (arm, pal etc) as POF

Based on my experience, if you do not receive an email stating verification has been sent, it probably was not sent or was sent and there was a system glitch...lost a month waiting for request from wes till i was able to confirm it never got to the school and i challenged wes via Facebook chat and Twitter. So, if you got the mail notification that verification has been requested from your school, it prolly was truly sent and if not, take it up with them. Cheers!

No, it makes no difference using one. All the info you need for a successful application can be found all through this thread. The guidance and support you freely receive here surpasses what an an agent can do for you, all the best.

I said i should share this...For those that need to do ECA,pls use ICES...i got mine within three weeks and its alot easier process.
My school sent my transcript to them as an email,and i sent my documents to them too via the same email,no need for reconfirmation from the school as long as the school sends the result to them via its email.
After that u make payment,275$ and within three weeks your evaluation is ready.
My hubby's ECA is stuck with IQAS now,and he started d process before me.

Wes said it sent verification requests to Knust which they did not respond to.

I thought Knust was culpable so I traveled to Ghana 2 weeks ago and discovered that the requests did not get to Knust.

I have sent mails, fax, tweets, calls etc but it has not helped. I do these daily.

I want the school to also send a mail on my behalf if it will help. I also paid for the request to be sent via courier but they did not send it.
