CEC documents - transcript, diploma or both?

[commagk]

Hi there,

Just finishing up completing my package to submit for my PR invite.
I'm struggling a bit with the university documents.
On the official website it says to include a scan of a diploma but the second bullet point says 'transcripts if available.'
I graduated from a university here in Ontario. My school provided only a diploma. I can get a transcript with an additional fee BUT do I really have to?
Will it be fine if I submit only a scan of my diploma?

I saw this topic a few times on the forum but there's not clear answer really.

Thanks in advance for any help!

See Proof of education section.

With all the other requirements you have to fulfill to apply for PR, are you really balking at getting a transcript??? That is about the cheapest, easiest document to get... just do it.
