Posting this so that it might helpful to someone.

Did my ECA from CES for my BBA LLB Honours degree obtained from University of Calicut.

The outcome is the follows:-
Canadian Equivalency Outcome:
Outcome 1: Three-year Bachelor's degree from a recognized university
Credential(s) Applicable: Credential 1
Outcome 2:First professional degree in Law from a recognized
university

Credential(s) Applicable: Credential 1

That is masters equivalency.

The following is my timeline

March 1: Transcript received at CES
March 26: Information reviewed
April 27: Documents Accepted for review
Oct 2: Documents Authenticated
Oct 8: ECA report ready and electronic copy recieved on same day.

I am currently in same situation where I read that wes is likely to send me a 4 year degree equivalency. Can anyone please guide me here. Other agencies are not taking atleast 6 months.

I used iqas, my 3 yr llb was evaluated as a first professional degree. It took about 2.5 months.

Hi are you sure CES gives professional degree to baLLB 5 year course? When I asked about it to them they were silent and choose to answer that it is part of the process how we identify a degree.
IQAS is better.

Hello Friends, I just want to point one thing out about LLB degree evaluation.

IRCC has clarified on twitter that
If your credential was assessed as a Bachelor of Laws (must specifically state Bachelor of Laws), then this would be considered to be a First Professional Degree needed to practice in a licensed profession. In that case you claim the extra points.

Hello Everyone,

I have 5 years integrated Law degree (BA LLB) from Chaudhary Charan Singh University and am looking forward to do an ECA. However, not sure whether to choose WES, IQAS or CES for credential assessment.
Can somebody please guide, which of these will give Professional degree equivalency and not a 4 years Bachelor's degree equivalency.

Also, does the division matters in the degree for credential assessment? since I have 2nd division (~52%).

Thanks,
Karan

While trying to fill my IQAS application online for ECA, it shows me this warning message that my institution is "Conditional Institution Status" they may or may not be assessed. Is anyone else facing this issue? Can you please help and share your experience whether your degree was successfully assessed by IQAS in this condition or not ? Thanks

Apart from IQAS, is there any other evaluation institution that can assess my Bachelor of Law as a professional degree for Canadian express entry?
