How long is wes valid

WES evaluation is a service provided by WES Canada for those who are looking to apply for immigration to Canada. It is required by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) for Express Entry candidates who want to apply for permanent residency in Canada or to work in certain regulated professions.

Normally, you can get WES evaluation within 7 days of the receipt of the application. However, it may take longer to complete an evaluation if additional verification or research is needed.

To prepare your WES evaluation, you must first visit the WES website and create a profile. You will also need to submit your official documents. This can be done through a secure WES portal or mailed to WES directly using their mail services.

If you are from a country where English is not the primary language, it is important to submit a precise word-for-word translation of your documents in English. It can be prepared by your educational institution or an authorized translator in your home country.

You must choose the option that is most suitable for you. Depending on your needs, you can choose either the WES Basic Report or the WES ICAP report. The WES Basic Report will provide a total evaluation report based on your specifications, while the WES ICAP report will deliver verified transcripts to any recognized institution.

In addition, the WES ICAP report will store your documents after the evaluation process is completed so that you can use them again for future applications. You can choose to purchase the WES ICAP service for $163 or for $205, which will include storing your documents and officially sending them to the universities you’ve selected.

During the WES evaluation process, you will be asked to select the institutions where you would like to receive your report from. The list of institutions that WES accepts has been pre-approved by the Government of Canada and you can add more recipients to your application later on if you wish.

After the WES staff has received your entire application, they will examine it to make sure that it is complete, includes all necessary documents and payments, and will be sent to WES for evaluative review. Once the entire application has been received, reviewed and approved, you will receive an email from WES stating that your application has been processed and is ready for delivery.

Once the WES staff has received all your documents and reviewed them, it will take about 35 business days to complete your evaluation. If you are an international student, it will take a little longer because of the extra verification and research that must be done before your WES evaluation is ready for distribution.

When your WES evaluation is ready, you will be able to download it from the WES website or from the IRCC Express Entry portal. It will be available for a period of five years from the date it was issued. If your WES report is expired, you can order an “additional report” that will extend its validity for another five years from the date of issue.
