Can I use my WES Evaluation to seek admission in a Canadian University?

[relocated]

I am Pakistani Lecturer currently teaching in Saudi Arabia. I am a mother of 3 children and the principal applicant.

I have recently obtained my ECA from WES. As I had a 2 year B.Sc., Master in English Literature and Master in Applied Linguistics from Pakistan, they evaluated me to be equal to a Canadian 4 year Bachelor program.

I am yet to lodge my application after 2 weeks for FSWP 4011. Before working out for my immigration process I had been planning for a distance doctoral qualification from the UK. However, now I deemed it to be unlikely and started contemplating an online Masters program from University of British Columbia.

The reason for this plan is that I already have the ECA from WES, plus I am a mother of 3 school going kids too. To play my safer bet for immigration, I am thinking that if I am offered immigration, then voila! The Canadian Qualification will come in handy. If , god forbid , the application is refused because of any ground, I will still have a master's degree.

When I contacted University of British Columbia for Master in Education Technology, which is an online qualification, they want original documents to be sent by HEC. Since we had to make a special visit from Saudi to Islamabad for WES I was wondering if I could use WES evaluation for UBC too. But they have refused to accept the WES evaluation.

Can I not use WES evaluation for any other purpose other than immigration to canada?

Its useless for university admission. And, its not even required for immigration to Canada.

I am also planning to apply under NOC 4011 - University lecturer. I have gathered all the required documents along with proof of funds, English test and ECA reports. However the ECA report I received mentions my MSc degree is equivalent in Canada is 4 years BSc degree!!

I have completed my BSc (3 Years), B.Ed (1 Year) and MSc (2 Years) with distinction grades in all the exams from Indian Unviversity. I also have 6 years experience in the same field.

My query is - Am I still eligible to apply under FSW even my ECA report shows my MSc degree is equivalent as Canadian BSc degree?? Please let me know your responses on urgent basis as I have very little time remaining to send my documents. Your help is much appreciated.
