If an English transcript is missing we translate it and ask the school to stamp it; we help prepare supporting letters where needed. 3. ### Accounts and submission We help register WES / CES and CHSI/CSSD accounts (or you register and hand them over), then submit the documents and start the evaluation. 4. ### Follow-up and chasing Progress is transparent. We check status for you and, when needed, contact the evaluator, the school or CHSI by email or phone. 5. ### Delivery We deliver the report PDF and send it to schools or institutions as requested. If the result is disputed, we handle the communication. Real case videos ## See how they were solved From our YouTube channel @yourlight23. YouTube loads only when you press play.

They serve different purposes. **WES** is one of the IRCC-designated ECA organisations for Canada and is widely accepted by U.S. universities and employers. **CES** sits within the University of Toronto and is also an IRCC-designated ECA organisation. **Qualification Check** is recognised by the Hong Kong Immigration Department and is often used for QMAS and Top Talent Pass applications. Which one you need depends on who is asking for the evaluation. See the [comparison guide](https://credentials.beichen.co.uk/en/guides/wes-vs-ces-vs-qualification-check/), or contact us and we will check. Why does a Chinese degree need CHSI / CSSD verification for WES? WES cannot judge by itself whether a Chinese transcript or degree is genuine, so it works with Chinese verification bodies. CHSI/CSSD and the degree centre verify first; that is why a WES report shows “Documents verified by CSSD”. A Chinese degree therefore usually needs CHSI verification, a degree verification report, and materials sent on to WES. How long does the whole evaluation take? From our experience: CHSI verification about 18 working days (varies in holidays; sometimes a week), EMS to WES about 3–5 working days, WES evaluation about 7 working days. **A typical total is about six weeks, and about four weeks when everything goes smoothly.** Cases that need school verification, such as vocational or closed schools, take longer. These figures are historical experience, not a promise. Will a WES evaluation raise my GPA? Not necessarily. WES weights major courses more heavily and non-core courses (PE, political theory and similar) less. Students with strong major grades and weak general-course grades may rise noticeably; others may fall. We have seen 2.4 rise to 2.8, and 3.6 fall to 3.0. See [this guide](https://credentials.beichen.co.uk/en/guides/does-wes-raise-gpa/). My name or passport number does not match my documents. Can it still be evaluated? Often yes. Name changes, different romanisations, or a wrong character in the school’s record are usually not blockers when documents are complete. The key is finding the name the school filed with CSSD and, where needed, a letter from the school. See the [names and passport guide](https://credentials.beichen.co.uk/en/guides/name-passport-transcript-issues/). My vocational school closed and has no email. Can WES still be done? It can be attempted. Approaches include finding which body now holds the records, asking WES to send a paper verification letter, or, where it applies, verifying the gaokao score report through CHSI to simplify the process. Outcomes depend on the case, so we assess first and then quote. See the [vocational and high-school guide](https://credentials.beichen.co.uk/en/guides/vocational-high-school-wes/).
