Did you call them? Please what is their reason for holding back your report?
Your file is processed and just waiting to be mailed out. Both your Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees were assessed.

We are having some issues with our new system so it shows some mistakes. I apologize for that.

Have a great day!

I will suggest you demand they email you the soft copy the old way. If their system is faulty you shouldnt suffer for it

They are unable to retrieve that, @indoparis visited their office and they confirmed. Also someone posted 2 days back here that he got Hardcopy directly no soft copy .....

Ok s*** just hit the fan...
In addition to updating the time to 15 weeks, they have also made changes to requirements , some I could identify is as follows:
1. Only passport accepted as proof of name
2. They are requesting ORIGINAL transcripts to be sent by applicant (plus photocopy of degree)
" Official academic transcripts / mark sheets
  • do not send a photocopy"
3. Processing time is now 15 weeks


Starting to regret choosing IQAS...
In 3... 2... 1... :D
I called IQAS a few days ago (beginning of December) and they said that they are in the process of opening mail received on the 10th of October.... and that any mail they receive is now facing about an 8 week delay....

Add that on to the 15 weeks processing time....

Now add those two on to the disclaimer that processing times do not include mailing time and the delay your institution would make to send the documents to them...

And you have yourself a whopping time frame of somewhere around....
25+ weeks....

Seems like the ECA is gonna take longer then the Express Entry itself :D
And by the time your ECA is cleared .... Lord knows where the points would have gone :D

Best of Luck to all of us....
IQAS people need it :D

Just now status got updated from in line for processing to Final Review

AOR 2 : 19th Sept 2018

Any idea now how much time will it take to get the soft copy of the report?
Which all credentials you opted for assessment? just bachelors or bachelors+masters?

For everyone’s interest, they are going on a long Christmas break and there will be nothing moving between 22nd Dec - 1st Jan.

Notice: Our office will be closed over the holiday season from December 22, 2018 to January 1, 2019. We will reopen on January 2, 2019.
Is this mentioned on their website ?

While reviewing your documents I noticed that you completed your Master of Arts in Journalism and Mass Communication program through distance education. Please provide the name and address of the campus/learning center where you completed your Master’s degree program.
