Dear all,

I am quite new to this forum.
My name is Eugene.

I would like to immigrate to Canada but I have one obstacle to overcome.

I was graduated from a military associated institute, I hold a mechanucal engineering degree.
Unfortunately, due to the sensitivity of my institue, they claim they can't send any papers in a closed and sealed envelope to a foreign country - Canada.
ICAS and WES demand on their website that all credentials are to be sent directly from the institute for evaluation.

My degree is issued by the Ministry of Education although I studied in this institute.


Is there any chance of getting my skills assessed in another way but sending them directly from the institute in a sealed envelope? Currently, this is the only reason preventing me to apply for a skilled visa.


Thank you in advance for your kind help,
Eugene Fingers Crossed

No, they have to be assessed, no way around it.

Thank you for your fast reply.

Is there a way to assess my education if I send them the sealed envelope issued by my institute by myself?

Hi

If you can get the school to release the transcripts to you in a sealed envelope, you can in fact send them to the assessment organisation yourself. What's important is that they receive it in a sealed envelope which shows it hasn't been tampered with. It doesn't matter as much if it's sent by you or the school directly, or at least that's the case with WES. I know this because that is what I did.

Thank you for your help.
What documents exactly should I request from my institute?
