The International Credential Evaluation Service (ICES)
The International Credential Evaluation Service (ICES) has been designated by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) to provide Educational Credential Assessment (ECA) reports for Canadian immigration purposes (Express Entry, Permanent Residency and Agri-Food Pilot). Many of the Provincial Immigrant Nominee Programs also accept the ECA. Please refer to the individual province for further details.
An Educational Credential Assessment (ECA) is a statement of the general comparability of an international educational credential to a completed Canadian educational credential, in the format that Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada requires.
In order for your credential to be assessed by ICES it must first meet the minimum assessment requirements:
Under the guidelines provided by the Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC), ICES will only provide ECA reports for fully completed academic credentials. A certificate, diploma, or degree must have been completed and awarded in order for ICES to be able to provide an evaluation.
The credential must be at least comparable to one-year of full-time study.

Getting ICES Verification from the Universities or other educational institutions is a big challenge for the residents and non-residents, whose location is different from the University’s location. The possible solution at present for the certificate holders is to: –
• Hand over the documents to people travelling to the document issued city/State.
• Mail all the documents over to friends or relatives living nearby the university to submit the request.
•The applicant will have to make multiple trips to Universities/Colleges for the
process.
