Hi @Jaywalker, thanks for guiding me to this thread! My husband is facing exactly the same situation as many have expressed in recent posts on this thread (Status: ON HOLD). I got my WES done as primary applicant 3 months ago and received the report within 6 weeks. In his case, the promised turnaround was even faster, documents received on 10th May and evaluation report expected by 11th June. All of a sudden, a few hours ago, the status changed to ‘On hold’ pending verification by issuing institution. As I could not reach the contact centre on time due to the weekend intervening, I have written in to WES on their twitter handle over a private message on my account and my husband has done as much from his twitter handle. We have also written to our contact at IMT Ghaziabad, the same lady from the academic records section whom we contacted for the sealed transcripts in the first place. Do keep us posted on what happens in your case too!
They don't share the email id to which they have send the request. I will wait for some time and take it from there. I don't think they have anything against MBA's - Probably there must be some one off case (Forged docs etc) that may have happened recently which would have prompted them to be extra cautious especially with PGDM (MBA's).
My evaluation was due on 8 th June and today I checked the status and it shows that status is "on hold" and they have asked for verification from institution. I was expecting to get into the pool soon and now I got this. I called them as well and the customer rep told me the same thing.
I have already mailed wes to speed up my evaluation and not to. Put it on hold as this is the common status other candidates are getting on or before completion date. Lets see how it works, the completion date is given 22/06
I have got the ECA for my wife from WES. Her education credentials had her last name as pre marriage name. We have sent the marriage certificate, old passport copy (with pre marriage surname), current passport copy ( with current surname). But in the ECA report they have mentioned Name of credential in her pre marriage surname only. The report is in her current surname. There is also one line which says: The name on one or more of credentials differ from the above name.
Is this ok? or I need to contact WES to change the name? I think this would be the case for many people who change their name after marriage.
