Document Legalisation for Canada Work Visas

A Canada work permit file is driven by the employer and the specific work stream. Degrees are verified by HEC and, where the employer or the work stream asks, evaluated by WES, IQAS, or ICAS. The police clearance runs through the police office and MOFA. We match the Pakistan-side steps to the instructions in your file.

Your papers and the Canadian work file

HEC attestation

HEC verifies the degree and transcript against the university record before the ECA body evaluates the credential.

ECA where the stream asks

Some work streams and employers ask for a WES, IQAS, or ICAS evaluation of the credential.

Police clearance

The police certificate is obtained from the police office and attested where the work file requires it.

What IRCC and the Canadian employer check

The employer and the work stream decide which evaluations apply, and we follow the instructions in your file.

IRCC may ask for the police clearance or the ECA report at different stages of the application.

Documents are sent under your reference number where an assessor or the department requires it.

We confirm the route and timeline per case with the receiving office before filing.

Canada work visa questions

Common doubts for the work visa file, answered before you book.

Does a Canadian work permit need an ECA?

It depends on the work stream and the employer. Some streams and employers ask for a WES, IQAS, or ICAS evaluation, while others only want the HEC-attested degree. We confirm from your file.

Is a police clearance part of the work permit file?
