Get ECA from IQAS step by step guide| Canadian immigration
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 дек 2022
- For Canadian immigration all your foreign education needs to have an assessment report showing its equivalence to Canadian educational standards.
IQAS is these days highly recommended for:
- Dentists
- Lawyers
- IT professionals
- Engineers
- Business management professionals
reason?
- IQAS is more reliable than WES
- IQAS does not need your attested documents via courier
- IQAS charges on per report basis unlike CES which charges on per degree basis
- IQAS has better turnaround time than ICES and ICAS in most cases

Five star video. 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 I was so confused and was thinking to go with the WES. But you changed my mind and saved my time. Everything is online and that's is the most amazing thing. Your way of explanation in the videos and in coments sortout all kind of queries. Really appreciate your efforts. Stay blessed..
Thank you so much, this was a very detailed step-by-step process, that explained everything clearly. I was confused about whether we need to send physical documents as well, so I am glad I got the verification that this is not required as long as my documents are attested by HEC, the whole process is complete online. I appreciate your efforts!
I have four years of transcripts for Bachelor's degree how should I upload as these all r hec attested
Hello Ahsan, can you pls tell me that do i need to get copies of my original documents attested and stamped by HEC?. I have already got my original degrees and transcripts and attested but not copies. Do i need attested copies to upload on IQAS platform or i can upload digital scan of original documents? Pls reply. i need to proceed
@@dr.sarashahid3991 You can get combined for final transcript from your university if you have completed all semesters. Then you will need to get your transcript and degree attested by HEC, before applying for ECA by IQAS
@@DMart012 No you donot need to get copies of documents attested by HEC, if you are applying for ECA by IQAS. Copies are needed only, if you apply for ECA by WES
Hi dear my bachelor degree is attested but Transcripts not yet should i go again for attestation of it ??
Hi bro thanks for the video , few questions
Start and end date in case of bachelors is only for bachelors or from when I started education till bachelor end
Hec doesn’t attest transcript it only attests degree , so I should attach transcript with attested degree right
Thanks sir for this informative video, one question i did BIT honrs 3 years in 2004, and MPA 2 years in 2007 and got attestation from HEC in 2010. All the degrees are verified through stamp in online portal. Should i apply for updated photocopy attestation in hec or directly upload on IQAS. Waiting for your kind response..
Thank you so much Faz bhai 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟This information means a lot for starting the processes. Stay blessed

Hello, we have received ITA again in medical draw. Initially we created profile for general draw with ECA report from WES. Our previous ITA was rejected as we used ECA from WES. But now we have received ECA report from Medical council of Canada (MCC) but after receiving ITA as again we created profile again for general draw with WES ECA report number. Does this matter if new ECA report date from MCC is after receiving ITA?

@Faz Ansari
Hi kind sir. Slightly confused at the education verification bit. Both my degrees are not from PK. For my MS I can see the eQuals body which is great. For the UK qualification they used ehear for verification and I don't see it on that list of verification bodies. What to do? I'm using IQAS should I go for WES? I don't want to send my original docs preferably complete things digitally. Would appreciate your advice.
For both education in your case original documents would not be needed in my opinion
Creat an account with IQAS and see what options it populates for you, before making the payment.
If you are inclined towards WES. Use its degree equivalence tool to get to know expected outcome. Its free
Thank you so much. Very helpful video. Just one question, I wanted to be clear on that before people used to mail sealed envelopes to IQAS. Now that’s not required? We just have to put soft copy in our profile & submit?
Yeah. Physical documents delivery not required anymore. It was changed to online submission as shown in this video
@@FazAnsariSYIC Thank you so much.
@allaboutanam can you pls share, did you upload scan of original documents or of attested copies?
@@DMart012 scan your original documents on IQAS and submit.
Hii sir, i applied for the iqas but after submitting application i noticed the spelling mistake in my name. I made the request to change name but nothing is changed yet and the request got close also. Sk i am confused what i should do, either to apply again or to wait
Thanks for this video. Wanted to check if you could recommend which ECA body to go with? Have a 4 years BBA from IBA and MBA from IBA too which took 3.5 years as IBA evening takes minimum 3 years. Could you advice?
I would suggest going for IQAS being more certain than WES as far as outcome is concerned
Should i send only mba degree or with bachelors degree?
Hello everyone, I'm from Pakistan, please guide me as I don't have my passport right now can I upload my CNIC Card? if yes, there is not option to select CNIC in reference document names.
Thank you Mr Faz I really appreciate.. May I know whether IQAS recognizes Federal URDU University of Arts Science and technology Karachi?

brother thanks a lot for your informations
Can anybody tell me the difference between emailed method or digital service??
I don't have the last name on my passport, what should I fill in IQAS last name?
Thank you Faz sahab.

Thank you so much for sharing insights to iqas documents submission.

your kind help will be highly appreciated.
No you don’t

Hello sir, thank you for the information. I am on the certificate upload page. I just wanted to ask if I should only add Degree certificate or I should add marksheets as well. Also does it have to be semester wise marksheet??? Or a consolidated marksheet is okay?
Consolidated marks sheet and degree combined as single pdf
@@FazAnsariSYIC in bds, they give only year by year detailed marksheet, no consolidated marksheet nor hec attested, what should we do for this?
Mashallah very informative and precise.
I have one quesiton please, is IQAS lenient on giving MS to MS equivalency?
Becuase WES is bandnaam.
I just wana know which service is lenient these days?
There are many factors which decide ECA. See my video on ECA selection.
Hi, what to say in last country of education while signing in?
Does IQAS evaluates a distance learning PGDM degree as a MASTERS degree??
found useful information.. doubts has been cleared
Glad to hear that Latika
Is it beneficial to include a 6-month additional certificate course in Training and Development, for educational credential assessment (ECA)? alongside my MBA 3.5 Years degree in Human Resources both obtained from the Virtual University of Pakistan?
No because it cannot be HEC attested imo

I have 3 years Bachelor and 2 years MCS with transfer credit hours. I got this result from IQAS
Comparative Levels of Achievement in Canada
The Bachelor's degree generally compares to the completion of a three-years Bachelor of Science degree with a focus in computer science.
The Master’s degree generally compares to the completion of a four-years Bachelor of Science degree with a focus in computer science.
Can you help, what is the equivalency here?
You can claim points for two or more degrees with this outcome
Sir, I've just watched this video and Already completed the process a week ago. In the documents option I've submitted only front and back of the degree not transcript. Would this prolonge my case or should I send them transcript somehow?
Transcript is an integral document for assessment. Share somehow
Hello,
Everything was super clear. I have query on user creation for first name and last name.
I have my name in First Name and fathers name in Last name,
How to update in this IQAS?
Please suggest
Use name format as per your passport
Hi, Do I need to get both bachelors and masters degree attested from HEC when applying through IQVAS? I only applied for masters degree attestation from HEC. Secondly, if I only get master degree attested from HEC and apply for masters degree equivalency through CES so would that work? Any help is appreciated. Thank!
Get both attested from HEC if both are Pakistani education
Can we use our NIC instead of a Passport? For proof of name since it's mentioned we can use Personal ID as well.
You can use any English /French ID document
Sir can we upload documents without transcripts?
For attestation from HEC, should I attest photocopies as well or only originals? I am asking for IQAS.
My degrees are 2 year BSc, 2 year MSc, and 2 year MS.
For IQAS original needs to be attested and uploaded
@@FazAnsariSYIC jazakallah sir
@@FazAnsariSYICsir but hec attest the orignal degree backside so we upload both side oe we get attested color photo copy attested from front side plz guide in detail
IQAS costs 200$ plus 75 $ courier.
If the origional master and bachelor degrees attested by HEC uploaded on IQAS portal , could we download or recieve the ECA done by iqas final report through e-mail, a soft copy then print it out OR do we have to pay 75 $ to recive physical report through courier in Pakistan ??
Use a friend’s address to save on courier cost.
You ll have to choose a local or international courier anyway. You cannot skip it
Hi,
Today, I have applied for ECA by IQAS. During application there was popup appear on which it was mentioned
“Your application will not be processed until the support documents for your credentials arrive.”
Further after submission of final application and payment at step 3 following was mentioned.
“IQAS is waiting for required documents or payments.”
My is question, do I need to send my degree photocopies in seal envelop (attested by HEC). Looking forward guidance.
Thanks in advance.
That message appears erroneously in many cases even if the university is acceptable. Make sure your university-is otherwise acceptable to IQAS
No physical documents required if you select National Verification (HEC) from the drop down list
In second question i selected yes, will there any problem i have to face while processing further step? Must reply if someone know
I am in Canada and I have to apply for ECA for my degree but my transcript is not attested, only my degree is attested by HEC so I want to know if it is ok if I apply on IQAS? or do I have to verify/attested my transcript too from HEC?
Transcript needs to be attested as well for IQAS
Do we need to upload scan copy of ORIGINAL attested degree & transcript or PHOTOCOPY of attested degree & transcript?
Front and back of original HEC attested docs
AoA sir in Pakistan HEC attest original degree on the back side. Should I upload front back side or in case I do this how they will (IQAS official) identify that it's the back side of such degree.
I also have same concern?? Could you please tell me what was the answer of it ??
I'm a dentist would iqas give me master degree points for Canada immigration?
Is ECA required for student visa in Canada?
My single marksheet of 4 years are hec attested along with certificate...consolidated marksheet should be hec attested prior to Submission?i have 4 transcripts i mean to say
Consolidated is fine
Besides Master and Bachelor , I have three years of vocational education as well. Should i get ECA for my higher education Master nd bachelor or vocational education also needs to be done ECA . For express entry , which one is better option???
ECA authorities assess formal education only.
Please check the country specific list of IQAS if your vocational education would be eligible.
Dear Faz Bhai, Kindly advise in this video if we are getting ECA through Iqas then why don't we select Transcript Transmission Method as Digital Service? Why we select it as National Verification?
National Verification refers to HEC verification for degree completed in Pakistan
Amazing video got cleared everything..
just want to ask one thing you said if you have a relative you can send your documents to his address like what we don’t require hard copy for immigration?
Thanks
No you don’t need the hard copy for entire process. Soft copy shall do
@@FazAnsariSYIC thanks faz
Hi Faz, I have applied and sent the transcripts already.
My courier company is telling, its already delivered. But in IQAS portal still showing as "Waiting for Documents".
My concern is "How long does it take to deliver the transcripts after the courier company delivered, like will they send us a confirmation status that they have received the document and so on?"
Please advise, thanks.
does IQAS requires physically delivery of documents as well ? As in this video he explained its all online only.
hello! Can you please let me know if IQAS consider distance education?
Yes it does
Thank u for an informative video. Can u please suggest me that for which ECA should I go as I have done 4 years BS(IT) from Quaid e Azam university Islamabad, Pakistan and after that I have done 1.5 year MS(project management) from ZABIST Islamabad, Pakistan. I'll be grateful to you
I ll suggest to go for IQAS
salam, one of my friend attested her degree from HEC in 2011, does she need to re-attest and apply for evaluation or same degree is acceptable by IQAS?
WSalam,
You need to call HEC and check, because there was a system migration after 2011 at HEC. (051 111 11 9432) OR 0334 111 9432.
How many days does it take to reflect the submitted status after draft when i make the payment?
Few days only in most cases
I have a confusion that do we need to send attested copies through courier in the hard form?
No. Upload scanned transcript and degree as single pdf as explained in this video
Sir IQAS does not require hard copies to send them and this complete online process of submission of documents is enough for ECA?
That’s right. This video has shown what documents to be uploaded and how?
Hay,
Very Informative video. Thank you for sharing the information.
I have a concern :
Recently My IQAS get expired on Novemember-2022. So Do I need to do a fresh application..?
And all Education details should be mailed or I can e-mail them..?
As I'm in Canada and Did my education in India & USA so, to mail them the copy would be tuff for me.
Please let me know.
Thank you
Thanks Manasi
Please contact IQAS for revalidation
Okay, thanks..
Hi sir
Am a little confused when we have to upload documents is it orginal degrees and transcript or soft copies of recently attested copies?
Scanned copies of original attested documents
Thankyou sir
Faz bhai thank you so much for this video. I have a question specifically for PIMSAT Degree. I graduated in 2010 from PIMSAT and got my degree and transcript attested from HEC in 2011. I submitted both to HEC again for fresh attestation last week, and they rejected it saying your documents are already attested and verification can be done online as well. We cannot do attestation again for your documents. And refunded me my fee. Should I apply for IQAS ECA ? I heard specifically for PIMSAT, that they don't accept older degrees. If you have anything known about PIMSAT specifically, pls do share. Jazak Allah.
eservices.hec.gov.pk/#/degree-verification/attestation ...please verify your attested stamp number...
Hi sir, my institution is not available in the records. Should I proceed by manually typing or not?
On IQAS website there is a country guide available. Please download and ensure your institution is listed before making the payment online
Hi sir!
I want to ask an issue.
Passport has given name- prabhjot singh
And surname is empty.
What to do in such case ?
Hi Komal
That’s not an issue.
General practice requires given name Prabhot Singh to be mentioned in Sur name section and leave the given name field empty
Can we upload Computerized National Identity Card (CNIC) instead of passport for proof of name? I have the latest CNIC, the one which has my name written in English too.
That should work
@@FazAnsariSYIC Theres no option to select the type of document as ID, what should be selected in case of English passport?
Dear Sir,
Its been a while since I have submitted scanned HEC attested degree and transcript to IQAS. When should I expect my status to change? It says pending to receive documents.
Few days only
salam, Faz!
Thank you for the informative video.
I've Masters in business analytics and BBA as well.
IQAS portal says to submit highest awarded degree, can you please guide if I should only submit and send for assessment Masters or both?
if both, then if you can also guide about the reason please! Thank you!
Submit both degrees as IQAS charges per report basis and some province require evaluation of both your degrees
@@FazAnsariSYICis this about submiting hardcopy? In your description you hv mentioned that nothing is to dispatch
Sir i can't find my institute, what should i do
Sir while showing your relatives address in canada. Should we enter the name of person who’ll receive the documents in canada in ‘care of’ or our name?
Mr XXXX Care of Sabah….
Sir, you said we will have to pay separately for each degree bachelor and masters. But in your video they charged you only 200$ and you added both degrees. Does its mean that one has to submit a different application following same procedure for both degrees?
As far as I know u do only for the highest degree u have..
For example if u have masters than only mention your masters.
No need to include bachelors..
Assessment fee by IQAS is same for EACH report which may contain several degrees
Hey Faz,
Can you please confirm if IQAS can give master equivalence for Pharm-D? In case one is not considering pursuing pharmacy after?
It can but it may not be acceptable if your primary occupation for PR application is that of a pharmacist’s See my detailed post on Pharmacist ECA
@@FazAnsariSYIC Thank you!
