Hi guys, can you please guide what I should claim points for?

My education details:
BPP university: 135 credits (1 Year College certificate awarded)
Pearson HND Level 5: 240 credits (Including the 135 at BPP) (HND completion)
Uhert: 140 Credits (Bachelor awarded)

These are three years in total.

WES Evaluation: 1 year college certificate, 4 year bachelor's (Canadian Equivalency)

Do I claim points for both, the 1 year college certificate, even though the credits were transferred towards a HND BTEC level 5? or just the Bachelors? Initially, I submitted the EE profile with only the Bachelor's. Should I make the necessary changes, (if needed) after the ITA?

Much Appreciated.

Thanks,

You will get points for 2 or more diplomas category between bcahelors and masters degree. Source: i had exact same situatioand now landed immigrant in Canada for 3 years.
Just one thing i am not certain is yours evaluated as certificate but mine was awarded as 2 year diploma and 4 years bachelors degree. I studied 2 years in college for HND then topped up the 3rd year at university studying total 3 years. Then i submitted with above details for 2 or more diploma option and was awarded PR. So for your situation not certain.

Dears, could you please help me.

Following is my education qualifications after 10th,

Three years Diploma (Electrical and Electronic filed).
Three years BE (joining lateral entry post diploma).

Now I have my WES assessed - Bachelor's degree (four years) - Because I have assed my latest education.
Now can I updated my WES to add my diploma course, so I can be eligible for "Two or more certificates, diplomas, degrees ...." to acquire more CRS points?

Or am I not eligible to for "Two or more certificates, diplomas, degrees ..."? If so I will not update my WES account to evaluate my diploma. (or) Even if I am getting points or not is it mandatory to evaluate my diploma course?
I am confused, please help me, thanks!

So your have been assessed as a bachelors, not two or more. Do you have another diploma to assess or did you have both 3 year programs assessed at the same time? Or do you have a Canadian diploma?

Let me be clear, while assessing (WES), I have assessed only for my BE (I didn't even mentioned about my diploma, bcz it is asking me asses only the latest education), so I got a report "Bachelor's degree (four years)".

My questions:
1. If I can assess my diploma, which I did before my BE, am I eligible for "two or more"? If so I can update my WES profile to add a credentials for my diploma course by paying $230.
or
2. Despite of I am getting points or not, is it mandatory to assess my diploma? Because while creating EE profile I've added my diploma course, but for the questions WES accessed - I've selected NO.

pls help me.

1. If your diploma is assessed as at least a one year diploma, then you can count “two or more”.
2. If you don’t want to add CRS points then you don’t need it assessed.

As per the previous thread, someone confirmed it will be assed like
*******************************************************
CANADIAN EQUIVALENCY SUMMARY : Bachelor's degree (four years)

or diploma (two years) and Bachelor's degree (four years)
******************************************************
Which means I could be eligible.

One more question, if I try to update my WES profile for my diploma validation, during the processing time (2 months), the existing certificate which I got from WES "Bachelor's degree (four years)" will be still valid right?
If in case I got invitation in between from IRCC I can still show this WES certificate right?

You have an ECA for a 4 year degree. If you get your diploma assessed as at least a one year diploma, you can count two or more.

you should definitely get it evaluated and if they will give you equivalency of 1 year Canadian undergraduate certificate/diploma then you can claim point.

yup...

First get your ECA done.
Then Enter Details
you will get points automatically.
