WES has received my docs on Apr 5th and updated that Provisional certificate is missing in sealed envelope on April 30 2019 . really ridiculous that they took 1 month of time just to say one doc is missing inside

My Status has been put ON HOLD pending secondary verification of documents from the university for post graduation.

University: Symbiosis, Pune
Degree: MBA

Has anyone with degree from Symbiosis faced this issue and how is Symbiosis in responding to such secondary verifications from WES?

TIA

Looping you in :) Hope your issue gets resolved soon!
Hi Nishika,
Thanks a lot for showing light to many of us.
I am also in similar boat now. My Anna university second level verification has again sent back to university.
When I contacted WES they have told
"They have not received the response in the manner they have requested . They have said university should follow the process they would have requested in the email and the response has to come from same email in which WES has requested for second level verification. Now as you know Indian universities it's a gigantic task to make them do something . I have already paid twice once for marksheet and another for degree certificate to university .
What am I supposed to do now. ?
You may also email me mailtotimir@gmail.com
Thanks in advance

Hi,

I have my MCA degrees which have been sent to VTU for verification and WES has sent the second verification email to University and still no progress. Has anyone else faced problem with VTU verification? Any idea on how can I check with VTU.

MCA from Visvesvaraya Technological University, Belgaum.

Kind regards,

Does Annamalai university charge $50 for re verification of Documents from WES? my status is on hold from past 5 months and after writing to annamalai university several times i got a mail yesterday stating :

"YOU ARE INFORMED TO PAY 50 US $ (OR EQUIVALENT IN INR AS PER CURRENT EXCHANGE RATE) AS RE-VERIFICATION FEE. THE FEE HAS TO BE PAID ONLINE AT "

Now the question is , i have not heard from any annamalai student who got ECA report, talking about re-verification fees? that too $50? can anyone confirm is it legit?
i don't even know if they have received the verification request from WES?

how should i go about it?
I received the same email from Annamalai University. I had paid online to the link provided. I have no clue now what's going on coz my status is still in hold.

I have sent my masters transcripts in Apr 2019 after that WES has now updated saying Masters - Verification pending and BACHELORS - STATEMENT OF MARKS - NOT ACCEPTED . How can they will ask for bachelors again once evaluation is completed long back

Anna University and Madras University Transcript application and Second level verification.
Almost 5 months after i have applied for Anna university and Madras university ,my certificates are finally accepted by WES. Let me tell you it wasn't easy and took its toll. So here i am to explain you the procedure for each of the university

Madras University
There is no online stuff here. That means you have either go yourself,Ask a friend or buy the expensive agents (I had to pay for agents ) . Unless you are helpless then only agent should be your last option . Agents are simply not worth it , eventually they will take lots of people job and your application will eventually get delayed.However after persistent follow up my agent did apply for me.

Part 1: Sending Transcript to WES
1. All semester mark-sheets ,Degree certificate,Passport copy,Authorization letter (if Agent or friend apply on behalf of you). If you are going yourself carry originals . Even university wants to verify originals if you are applying via agents or friend. Although university mentioned in the website that notarized copy may also work.But why take risk.
2. After applying in university, they will take their own sweet time. Insist university to send the courier by themselves , do not send by yourself or agents or friend.WES is very strict about this.
3.University fee plus courier fee will be approx 3500 INR. I have aplied by agent so eventualy had to pay almost 7k INR more(So you know why i say do it yourself)

Part 2:Second Level verification
most likely in recent times WES will be sending your transcript for a level 2 versification.If you are lucky enough first time you dont need to come here. However in my case it did.I was paranoid to say the least.This is the most tricky and difficult part. Here your univeristy has to respond to the email/Post WES has sent to them., they cannot send a fresh response.You have to pray to god that your university receive the email/Postal mail and they keep it for you. Remember without paying verification fee your university will not reply.SO as soon as you receive the mail from WES apply in your university so that they will keep track of WES mail/EMail.

1. Second level verification process is bit relaxed. University will give you a envelope , where you have to write your WES address and affix the stamp charges by yourself.
2.copy of your marksheets and degree certificate,Passport copy , authorization letter and sum of around 1500 ++ univ fee and courier charges around 1500++. Remember Madras university send response only via mail they donot reply to any email. So keep checking with them if they have received mail from WES or not, as they have to reply on that mail .(Try speaking in Tamil if you are calling them, the clerks are not well versed in speaking english).
3. Once Madras university receive mail from WES , they will reply to WES in the same envelope which you have earlier submitted to university.
4.The whole process takes around 20 days so be patient.


Anna University

Part 1: Sending Transcript to WES

Do not go for agent. it will be simply waste of money and harassment. Apply directly in Anna university website , they have even courier facility to send to WES directly.
https://onlinetranscript.annauniv.edu/transcript/


Simply follow this process after you login and boom, you have done applying.

**If you cannot login , send your registration number to transcriptenquiry@gmail.com , they will enable it for you.
** Do not try to call Anna university, it is waste of time, most of the time phone will be busy and you will never get a answer you are looking for.

I did make the mistake going to Agent and have to follow similar process as in Madras university ,except here they will not ask for your originals to verify.

Part 2:Second Level verification
unfortunately my ANNA univ also sent back for Second level verification, and here Anna university flops, until first two weeks they have told me (This time i have asked my friend to help me to enquire in person, as they will not pick up phones) they are finalizing the process. may be i am one of the few students for whom second level verification came.

Anna university do not send postal email, they will only reply too WES emails.
1. Marksheets,Degree certificates ,passport copy,authorization letter submit to Transcript department with DD equivalent to 25 USD. (I had to pay 50 USD , 25 for Marksheet and 25 for Degree. later it seems they have combined but not sure)
2. It will take minimum 2.5 weeks for Anna to reply as their verification process is quite extensive.

HI Guys,

WES put my request on hold and sent the re-verification request to Agra university( For bachelors) and uttarakhand technical university ( for masters).
Does anyone know about these universities whether they respond to second verification or not.
Any pointer about how to get this second verification from these universities will be helpful.

I have sent documents WES by Post, now my status is on hold due to document were not sent by institution. They have accepted my degree certificates but not accepted my statement of marks documents. Actually both of the documents are in the same envelope and University envelope is also sealed with signed.

What should I do, please advise.

My ECA is also on hold since a month now. I tried to contact the University multiple times via landline and also via an inner person contact and they told me that they have replied the email of WES twice but when I contacted WES, they told me that they didn't receive any such emails.

I don't know what to do now. It's being back and forth.
