Is it true that I need to have 17 years of full time study in order to claim "master's degree"?
What if I got my master in year an a half? Can I claim it and declare full time work at the same time?
WES om my ECA I have 4 year for my BA (was 3 years) and Masters 2 years (was 1.5)
my question is about EE not FSW.
I believe WES looks at the official program length, and not how soon you finished it. You might have been an excellent student and finished earlier than anticipated. Therefore, I would input the number of years on WES report for each program, not how long it took you.
I also finished my 2 year masters in 1.5 years and still got it assessed as masters (2 years). I inputted 2 years as my length of study in EE. Later, post ITA you can specify exact dates in your personal history.

If it says "Master's", then your highest degree is equivalent to a Canadian Master's, and you can safely select Master's degree when filling out your profile.
There is no need to second-guess the ECA. CIC will accept it.
Yes, I got an ITA. I wanted to input 1.5 in EE but it only allows to input full numbers. I didn't want conflicting information between my ECA and my information in the profile so I input 2 years. Now that I am filling out my eAPR, I am explaining everything in detail, including my education length.
If WES already assessed a degree as masters in Canada, then I don't see an issue with this. Assessment is there so immigration officers don't need to worry about who studied for how long.

It doesn't have anything to do with the length of study. My partner had 17 years, a Master's degree in his country, and it was assessed as a 4-year Bachelor's degree. It has to do with the number and type of courses, the type of thesis required, etc. Just put what your ECA says you have.
I have completed 3 years full time Master of Computer Applications (MCA) from Pune University, India and prior to that I have Bachelor of Science (BSc - Physics) from Mumbai University, India. My queries are -
1) Does MCA (from Pune University, India) considered to be a Masters in Canada?
It shows "Equivalency in Canada = Master's Degree", when tried getting a degree equivalency through WES tool.
2) Do we need to have first division/class (i.e. >60%) in Master's degree to get it recognized?
