Hi

I had same difference in Passport and Education certificate. WES mentioned as "the name on submitted academic credentials differ from the name indicated above" I got my PR approved.

Steps what I followed.

1. Please provide details in the Letter Of Explanation as below. This is my format but you change the way as per your details.

Educational Credential Assessment Report: WES

The naming convention in academic educational documents and certificates from India would have my last name ”AAAAAAAAA" along with my first name "BBBBBBBB XXXXXX". So all my educational certificate name mentioned as "BBBBBBBB XXXXXXX AAAAAAAAAA". World Education Services(WES) Assessment document# 1234567IMM was expanded and stated as "BBBBBBBB XXXXXXX AAAAAAAAAA".
Note: Affidavit has been uploaded along with Education documents.

2. Get a affidavit and notarized from the lawyer. Make sure you get proper seal from lawyer and while uploading also ensure its properly scanned without missing any signature.

Sample Notarization:

AFFIDAVIT – ONE AND SAME PERSON


I, BBBBBBBB XXXXXXX AAAAAAAAAA, a Citizen of India, Passport#A1234567, born on Month, Date, Year; and residing at: 11 SDFDSFSDFDF, Apt# 1000, Toronto, Ontario, Tel: (123) 345-6789;

SOLEMNLY AFFIRM AS FOLLOWS:

Hope this may help you at some extent.

I want to evaluate 3 results with WES but one is bearing Uzoho Ada while the other 2 are bearing Uzoho Ada Linda with my international passport inclusive. I don't know whether this will disrupt my evaluation request.

Hi Kiran,
Hope you are doing good!!

Details related to IELTS can be altered if the result is not issued. Just email the IELTs authority with your passport details and mention the changes that you want to do. But keep this in mind that changes can be done prior to the declaration of IELTS results.

hi everyone.I hope you r good.

I need a valuable advice from you regarding my name mis-match.

On university certificate, it is written as jatinderpal singh while on ECA from ICES, it is written as jatinder singh, middle name ommitted. will it affect my application for immigration process (for PR).

Secondly, i have assessed my master degree not bachelor. So, I want to ask whether bachelor is required to be evaluated or master is fine to apply for Canada PR.
Any feedback will be appreciable.

thanks

Hello all,
My problem is kind of same like I have changed my last name from "Patel" to "Kyada" after I completed my bachelor degree and before my passport issue. I have selected "yes" option in question "Has this person ever used any other name? (required)".

In my ECA, It shows both my old name and my current name. I've affidavit which I've used to apply passport but then after I was never asked for the affidavit again. So do I need to upload the affidavit issued from India or have to get new affidavit from here in Canada?

Hi,

Thanks for this information.
I have two doubts, though:
1) Did WES evaluate your credentials successfully without any hassle if your name was in a different format in your Bachelor's and Master's degree? Because I have that issue, my Bachelors documents have only my name and Masters documents have my name with surname.
Should I attach same name affidavit while sending the copies of degrees from my end?

2) Where did you upload the LOE and same name affidavit that you have shown above?

Thanks in advance.
