ECA : WES or PEBC

[upenpatel]

My query is regarding education credential based on my qualifications. I have done my diploma in pharmacy (2 years course) from Board of Karnataka, Bangalore, Karnataka, India and Bachelor of Pharmacy (3 years) from Rajiv Gandhi University, Bangalore, Karnataka, India. (which is actually 4 years course, however, since I''ve done diploma of 2 years, I got direct entry in 2nd year of Bachelor of Pharmacy). I want to know the process for submitting the documents to WES as there is a provision of 4 year Bachelor Degree program only. Will you please guide me on this, so I can start my application to WES accordingly. Thank you in advance for your guidance.

I got points for professional degree and PPR. my PEBC ECA states I am four years in bachelors of pharmacy like mentioned above in bold letters.

Hello just a question when you get your Bachelors in Pharmacy Degree assessed frim PEBC did they ask for your licenses in your country because I never register in India for a license because I work in a different field.

Hi!

I have completed my B.pharm and M.Pharm. I am currently working in medico-marketing division in a pharmaceutical company.
My husband has completed B.pharm and Pharm D( Doctor in Pharmacy). He is currently working in medical affairs division in a pharmaceutical company.
We don't require a prove of our Indian pharmacist license for the current job.
We processed for ECA through WES.

Can we still go ahead with NOC 3131 for express entry for PR?

Could anyone please suggest NOC for us?

 

[Aboli Kulkarni]

Hi.

I submitted my application with NOC 3131 for me and my spouse without PEBC evaluation; considering that we have industrial pharma experience. I have got a mail from Canada Immigration to submit PEBC evaluation report.
The issue is:
have to submit the PEBC evaluation report before February and contrary; PEBC evaluation takes around 8 weeks.

Please suggest, what should I do?

This is a bit dicey. Send a mail to PEBC and let them know about the severity of your situation. In the meantime, get your documents over to them and ensure that CIC is aware that you’ve initiated the document evaluation process with PEBC. Keep all correspondence and forward to CIC as proof and request more time if possible. Goodluck

You can seek an extension citing the time it takes for the PEBC to generate your report.

Hi dear,

Just wanted ask how you got your ECA report, my wife’s document evaluation is done and we already got the conformation. Now we need ECA report from PEBC, what we need to do is to send the request form right, i have a few doubts -
1)Witness can be anyone or only the lawyer?
2)How can we pay the fee of 100 CAD, there is no link anywhere to pay that, shall we enclose that in the envolope along with the request letter (will that be acceptable)?
