When Career Consulting International began doing foreign credential evaluations for the Chartered Accountancy certification from India, experts Sheila Danzig and John Kersey had their research cut out for them. Few evaluators were even attempting this equivalency, and success rates were quite low.

Thanks to their hard work, however, Ms. Danzig and Professor Kersey have joined forces to offer clients who have passed the CA exams the U.S. equivalency of a Bachelor, or even a Master Degree, in Accounting. In fact, CCI’s success rate with this certification is 100 percent for immigration purposes.

In fact, foreign degree evaluations that show the Chartered Accountancy Fellowship equal to a Master’s Degree are not easy, and few evaluators even believe this is possible. We have been very fortunate to work with excellent attorneys and clients who work closely with the evaluators to provide the necessary information to accomplish this goal.

Thanks to our clients, who work so hard to help us help them. Thanks to the excellent attorneys who, through their outstanding teamwork and collaboration, help their clients so effectively. Showing educational equivalencies for foreign degrees and certifications isn’t always easy, but helping our clients succeed is more than worth the effort involved!

“I have a dream.” That sentiment is shared by most people wanting to immigrate to this country and experience a safe life for themselves and their family, but without foreign degree evaluations, many are unable to make this dream come true. Foreign credential evaluation agencies like Career Consulting International were founded by Americans whose parents or grandparents had arrived in this same country seeking to fulfill this same dream.

The USCIS, which is the part of the United States government that deals with immigration, does recognize that many people wanting to immigrate have foreign degrees, such as high school diplomas or college degrees, from their home countries. Because of the wide variations in education, though, the agency has to ensure that these degrees are the U.S. equivalencies of high school graduation, Bachelor degrees, etc. For this reason, people wanting to obtain immigration visas to the U.S. usually need a foreign degree evaluation to demonstrate their educational equivalencies.

One of the problems with this requirement is that foreign credential evaluations are expensive. A document evaluation is the least expensive, but these can cost up to $100. Other foreign degree evaluations, such as expert opinions, can cost hundreds more. Many of the people who want to come to the United States hardly have enough money to make the trip, find a place to live and food to eat, and all of these things are much more immediately important than having their degrees evaluated.

These people all have a dream, and their dreams are similar to those of our fathers or grandfathers or great-grandmothers. They dream of a better future in a safe land, and the directors of CCI are working to help them make that dream come true, guaranteeing the best possible price for foreign degree evaluations. Are you ready to make your dream come true?
