Guys,

There are two numbers on WES report.

1. Reference # (1234567/cjm) (This is on the acknowledgement letter, on top right corner)
2. ECA # (1234567IMM) (This is mentioned on the page where degree equivalency is mentioned, on top right corner)

Both the numbers have same numeric part but characters are different. As , CIC is requesting ECA certificate number, which number is being shared? 1st one or 2nd one?
Appreciate your inputs.

Regards

Doesn't really matter. Choose the one with IMM because that appears on the report. And upload the report along with your degree/diploma certificate(s).

I did my ECA pre Express Entry days and I only have a WES reference number (1234567/cjm)and no ECA number indicated anywhere on the report.

I received my second AOR which indicates that my application was found to be complete.

This confirms again what Asivad had said that it doesn't seem to matter much which number to use.

Yes. It is your WES account number. If I recall correctly, it is a 7 digit number.

Login to the WES account and pay online. Your account number is the reference number.

hi , my present score comes 429. I have already given my IELTS and applied to WES for ECA last week. Considering the fall in points, i want to create my EE immediately. could any one answer the below questions.
1. Can i apply with WES reference number created during my online application withouy waiting for the ECA evaluation report?
2. Do we have to upload the ECA report when i create my express entry profile?
3. Will this number 3245913 be the same ,after i receive my evaluation report ?
4. I have read threads where it says ECA# 7 digit number + IMM eg , mine shall be 324913/IMM?

i would appreciate if anyone can provide the above information for me to take a call on the application.

1. No
2. No
3. Might be same but you will need a date for the report.
4. Not sure.

Wait for your ECA and then only create a new profile.

ECA from wes Canada , there you have to select ECA for citizenship and Immigration. On the Home page of the website , you have to click on the "For Immigration" Link.
