My name is Shreya Kumari Y M. I would like to immigrate to Canada. Last year end, I had sent my Bachelor's and Master's transcripts to WES. Post evaluating WES forwarded the report saying my name as per Mark Sheets 'Shreya Kumari Y M' is different from Passport 'Shreya Kumari Yelahanka Madan'. In Passport, my initials 'Y M' has been elaborated due to which my assessment is on hold and WES is asking me to change my name in all my Mark sheets to 'Shreya Kumari Yelahanka Madan' (as per passport). I have an affidavit stating both the names 'Shreya Kumari Y M' and 'Shreya Kumari Yelahanka Madan' are one and the same and WES is not considering the Notary. But, to do the same Universities is asking me to rectify first in SSLC and PUC Marks sheets. Would you be able to give any suggestions on how to pass the WES assessment?

Did you get your WES evaluation report? You have said they have forwarded the report.

Hi,

My WES was rejected recently because of name discrepancy.
Actually my name in academic certificates is M.Akhila
New name now in every legal document is Alia Das

Only my academic certificates have my old name.
All my address proof,identity proof documents and my passport also has my new name.

Here with WES , we file application with Name as per passport and the certificates are verified as per the Academic certificate name.

Please suggest what can I do?

I'm pending with this since almost 6 months now.

My consultant suggested me to change the name in my Academic certificate through the university but I doubt if that would happen because they would again ask me to change the name in my schooling certificate so that they can update my university degree certificate.

Waiting for your genuine advise please!!!!

Thanks a ton in advance!


Old name : M.Akhila
New name: Alia Das



Regards-
Alia

You won't face any problems getting the ECA done. They'll mention that the name on the credential is different from the name on the identification document. Get a name Similarity affidavit done and upload after ITA.
Hi, will this work if my name and the credentials are different in the WES applicat

I am in process of WES evaluation
I have two educational credentials to b verified by WES
1. My B.Tech Degree and all DMCs doesn't have my surname, ( only First Name )
2. My MBA certificate has my full name with surname (First Name+ Surname)

My Passport and all other documents have my full name only.

Should I send Letter of explanation along with the supporting documents to WES so that there is no confusion.
Please advise.
Hi VjSharma,

I have the same issue as well. Would you be able to share your feedback on what happened?

Thank you in advance.
