Hi guys
pretty new to this forum...so must have missed the discussions regarding some of the doubts that i have....hope to get them cleared.
1.
WES accredition process
once we register for WES and make the payment, what is the next step...i mean...what are we supposed to get attested by our university boards.....i know they would give us a WES ID....but i am confused by what they mean by getting attested from University.....please bear with my lack of knowledge regarding this
2.
Work Experience proof
What are they expecting as proof for our work experience.....is it a letter of recommendation from the manager that they require or or something else...
it would great if you guys could enlighten me on these formalities.....
Also, I would requires your opinion on one important query:
Do we have to go through a consultancy to get process done or can we do it on our own...i spoke to 3-4 consultancies and none of them were giving a clear picture about the process.....all were saying make payment fast and we can start the process....felt they were not sincere and just behind the money
.....
I was reading online about this and there were many who were sharing the same feelings
Thanks
Hi,
1) In general WES require you to send copies of your certificates to them, and for your University to send your transcripts directly to them. However these requirements may differ, so I would recommend you use this tool to see what your degree is equivalent to and what WES will require: http://www.wes.org/immigrants/preliminary.asp
2) "The following documents are mandatory for each work experience declared:
a reference or experience letter from the employer, which
should be an official document printed on company letterhead (must include the applicant’s name, the company’s contact information [address, telephone number and email address], and the name, title and signature of the immediate supervisor or personnel officer at the company),
should indicate all positions held while employed at the company and must include the following details: job title, duties and responsibilities, job status (if current job), dates worked for the company, number of work hours per week and annual salary plus benefits; and
if the applicant is self-employed, articles of incorporation or other evidence of business ownership, evidence of self-employment income and documentation from third-party individuals indicating the service provided along with payment details (self-declared main duties or affidavits are not acceptable proof of self-employed work experience).
If the work experience is in Canada, proof may include copies of T4 tax information slips and notices of assessment issued by the Canada Revenue Agency (the time period for these documents should reflect the work experience timeframe [e.g., work experience from 2006 to 2008 requires only documents from those calendar years])."

3) The majority of people on this forum are applying alone as it is pretty straight forward. If you are willing to put in time and work, you can do the same.
All the best
