Hello,
I need ECA for family immigration to Canada via the Express entry program for which I need to get my degrees verified from WES. I am applying from Pakistan and have given A and O levels exams before Bachelors. Now, the WES asks for attested and sealed copies of a and o level results from www.cambridgeinternational.org. I have a few questions regarding the situation:

  • For A level credentials, I selected secondary education. The form asks 'which of these apply'. I am confused between two options: Completed IGCSE, A level or AS level exam or attended a Pakistani secondary school. which of these is correct in my case?
  • For O level, I again choose secondary education as the institution type. So for 'which of these apply' which do I need to select among the options I just mentioned in the previous point?
  • Do I need my O and A levels degrees attested, sealed and sent to WES from www.cambridgeinternational.org or do I need to get my O and A level equivalence certificates attested and sent to WES from IBCC?
  • The attestation form available at www.cambridgeinternational.org does not include any space for adding a reference number where I would have added the reference number which WES will give me. How then will my attested envelopes from Cambridge be matched with my University degree attested by HEC since they will be sent from different addresses and at different times?
  • also, what are 'Secondary School Certificate of Examination' and
    'Secondary School Mark Sheet/Result Card'
    documents which the WES is asking for attested and sent by State Board of Intermediate and Secondary Education. These documents are being asked for my Bachelor's degree.

Apply for certifying statements on Cambridge international website and they will directly courier these to WES. You need to add your WES reference number.

I sent IBCC attested copies of my equivalence certificates and HEC attested Bachelors degree. WES accepted it. I got the ECA report without any problems.

What does WES assess Cambridge A level as? Secondary school level or 1 year programme at a University/College/Trade etc? Really interested in a reply.

Can you help me with filling the form? What did you write after secondary education and what were the documents that were required?

@keebs
Did you manage to earn additional points under "Two or more certificates diplomas or degrees" along with your undergraduate degree?
