Educational Credential Assessment for Express Entry

[Ravi123456]

Hello,

I have a masters from Canada and a Bachelors degree from India.

1) Do I need to get educational credentials assessment done for my degree back home ?

2) I dont have ECA done for my degree from India. While filling out express entry profile I am getting points for Education only when I mention my Canadian education. If I fill out my Canadian education and my Indian education (with no ECA), I am not getting points for the Canadian Masters.

3) Can I only mention my Canadian education and leave the Indian education from my profile?. Is this considered misrepresentation?

Thanks
Ravi

1 - Not in this case. Your highest degree is only required (masters)

2 - Only mention your Canadian education.

3 - It is not misrepresentation. When you receive your ITA you can add your bachelors in the personal history section.

Cheers

If your masters degree is relevant to your bachelors (in the same field of specialization), then you can mention only your masters.
Even if you do your ECA, you have to do it for your highest qualification (which is masters)

Hi Shirish,

I just mentioned Canadian Masters and removed Bachelors from my educational history. When I recieve ITA, I will add my bachelors in the personal history section like the forum expert members suggested.

Thanks

Hi Ravi,

So after you removed the Bachelors from your educational history you got 30 points for CRS Canadian education ? Please clarify at earliest. Thank you again in advance and +1 again.

Yes, I got 30 points after I removed my Bachelors from the profile.

That is so weird. That shouldn't happen. I have mentioned my Indian bachelors degree and Canadian masters and got 30 points for Canadian education and 135 points for education as a whole. What are you seeing?

Did you have the Educational Credential Assessment done for your Indian education?
