WES has stated it will not evaluate 2 yr MBA outside of IIMs as masters. You need to try ICES or IQAS. They might evaluate it as masters
Wow. Thanks for the clarification.but how come then some members in the forum claim that their credentials have been considered as master's? It's confusing! Also is ICES or IQAS equally racagonised like WES for Canadian immigration ourposes?

WES changed its guidelines recently. Yes both ICES and IQAS are recognized.

Can IBS directly send transcripts through email or other electronic medium to eca organizations. Then go with ices. I used ices. they were professional and I got my eca in 6 weeks. Either way both are better than wes imo.

Even if IBS sends, I don't think my under graduation University might be in a position to send electronically. But you suggest it's worth taking a shot at? Given that I have 8 CRS points to gain if ICES certified my MBA as master's instead of just a 1 year diploma.pls advice.

For ICES you only need to send mba. They don't need undergrad.

This idea is great man! I just request ICFAI Hyderabad to email the transcripts to ICES from their registered ID? And if ICES accepts it as master's then no need of getting my Under graduate degree evaluated? CIC can then figure out and award me the points for masters right? And no need of physically couriering any documents to Canada then?

Also can I first file my expression of Interest using the WES report calling my MBA aa1 year PG diploma and subsequently after 45 days change it with the ICES report stating Master's degree to benefit from the extra points?or is it better to stick to one ECA and avoid confusion?Asking this as it will help me make the process quicker by about 45 days.

Yes you only need highest degree evaluated. No need to physically courier anything.

Won't CIC question me the purpose of getting ECA done by 2 different agencies? Especially if the outcomes of their evaluation are different and more inclined to benefitting me? You are a life saver man! I wish I had stumbled upon this forum before.Some of these queries even my immigration consultant is clueless about!

No they wont question. Several members of this forum got their degrees evaluated by multiple agencies. It's a normal process.

One last question chief. Is this electronic sending of transcripts accepted for Universities in India or it is applicable only for other countries and manually sending hard copy is mandatory for India? Also I hear that ICES is far more strict than WES and will no way consider IBS as a Master's degree. Is that true?

Yes electronic transmission of transcripts is acceptable for universities in india. Hard copy is not mandatory. We never sent them. WES is more stricter than ICES from what I've read on these forums.

Hi. I have completed by PGPM (IBS Mumbai) & MBA (ICFAI Dehradun). As mentioned WES does not recognize ICFAI, and few members mentioned they have been evaluated as Master's. Should I continue and send the transcripts for both? What are the chances that it won't be considered at all?
