I just wanted to share about my experience with WES and IQAS.

I finally received my IQAS ECA today.

Timeline
Documents Delivered: 9th Oct
AOR1/AOR2: 27 Nov
Soft copy: 5 March

Although it says it was completed on 17th Feb but it was only uploaded on 5 March.

IQAS is spot on with their ECAs. They correctly evaluated my 1-year UK PG certificate as 1 year graduate certificate whereas WES gave it one semester equivalency and later changed it after my University sent them further proof that it was a 1 year program and I was enrolled for 2 semesters. Even though WES processing was quicker but I had a very painful experience and was under extreme duress for nearly 2 weeks.

However, IQAS processing time is nearly 6 months which is a long painful wait but their evaluation is absolutely perfect. So I would highly recommend everyone to choose IQAS over WES :)

I’m CEC, no movement since December 1st. I think it really depends on your case and your visa office. We will all get there in the end :)
That is true too. I'm FSW and no movement since Dec 1st too.

Technically, we Nov folks should be getting some movement this month but its really annoying how the waiting is going on

There is nothing really we can do but just hope

It’s all about individual preferences:)

Quite odd, Eligibility, Security and Criminality havent started. this was a month back though. that is what the summary says.
The summary can have Eligibility as Not Started but case analysts notes on Eligibility present (which means Eligibility has started).

What was your AOR date and the date notes were generated?

Guys, please stop giving timelines based on notes. Even if eligibility is passed, nothing is certain in terms of timelines. There are people who have their files marked as approved and still had to wait 1-2 months for PPR.

Have patience and if your eligibility is clear, it's just a matter of time... although no one can say exactly when.

Guys, what is the average waiting time after paying RPRF to get PPR? Also, are there still any chances of objection/ additional documents demand after paying RPRF? My AOR is 17 Nov 2018, medical passed: 20 Dec; RPRF paid: 9 Jan 2019. Now no updates since then
