MG University WES secondary re verification process
Based on the feedback we had on our last article How To Apply For Transcript From Mahatma Gandhi (MG) University, Kerala, we are detailing the process of WES asking for re-verification once you submit the transcript.
Why WES asking for secondary verification?
Below is the screenshot of an email from WES received by many applicants after submitting the transcript to WES.
As you can see, WES states “increase of fraud” as the primary reason for re-verification. WES directly contacts the university to evaluate authenticity of the documents submitted by both emails and by post.
MG University Process for re-verification
MG University will send below email to candidates for payment of reverification fee of $50 each for transcript/degree certificate. If WES ask the university for both transcript and Degree Certificate fee it will be $100. Else it will be $50 for just the transcript. This will be mentioned in the email from university.
How to complete the re-verification process?
- WES will let you know by email when it has asked the university for secondary verification.
- MG University will receive the request both electronically(email) and via post.
- MG University contacts you via email within two weeks and asks to pay the re-verification fee.
- Visit the online payment portal and pay US $50 or $100 ( This will be the amount mentioned by the university in the email) https://epay.mgu.ac.in/Candfee/feeoptions/1056
6. Sent the payment receipt to the email mentioned by the university in the memo.
How long does it take to complete the whole process?
WES typically asks for secondary verification within 2 weeks of getting a transcript from MG University. University should contact you in another two weeks time for the payment. Once you made the payment, it takes about 3 weeks for the university to respond to WES and another week for WES to process. So in total, it can take about 6-8 weeks to process your WES evaluation.
Example timeline:-
11-Dec – WES asks university for re-verification
24-Dec – MG University sends the email for payment (within 2 weeks)
25-Dec- Online payment made and receipt submitted
15-Jan – MG university respond to WES email request (within 2-3 weeks)
22-Jan – WES process your evaluation report (within 1 week)
Do I need to visit the university for completing re-verification?
Not required as the university only need the fee to be paid online and receipt sent to them via email. Also, University will be responding to WES via email and no physical documents are prepared or send. This is a verification process between the university and WES. We only need to pay the re-verification fee online.
Note: Above article is based on crowdsourced information from other applicants and readers of this blog. As the process could change from time to time, please check with university information counter.
Special thanks to Sreejith, Amal & KJ for their inputs.
How to contact University and check the status of your application?
I got mail from WES about re-verification on Nov 17, 2020. And I was waiting to get notification from university. Finally I decided to call university and yesterday Dec 13,2020 I called Pariksha Bhavan and a lady collectedy my details. Today I called them again and the same lady told me that they got the mail from WES and asked me to pay only 50$ as WES requested re-verification of only one certificate. Everything was quick, not like the usual MG way. I made the payment as they directed and send the receipt back to MGU. I’ll add the contact number in case it’s useful to someone. Try to contact them rather than waiting for email too long.

Hi,
WES sent me an email on 20th October 2020 saying that they have requested M.G University to reverify my documents. But I haven’t received any email from MG University in this regard.
I contacted the university multiple times and even one of my relative went there in person and checked, but we are getting the response like they didn’t receive any reverification notification from WES in my name or the reference number WES included in the mail I received. I contacted the registrar session today morning also and rechecked they are saying like usually the WES verification notification reference mail have 10 digit ID, but in the mail I received its only 7 digit and moreover they even searched the inbox with my name and couldn’t find any mail.
Now its been more than 7 weeks and my evaluation process is on hold. When I contacted WES I got the response that applicant shall not interfere in the WES re-verification process.
I am completely clueless on how to proceed further. Any idea what should i do? if anyone who faced this situation previously can give me a suggestion that would be really helpful.
Trying contacting WES on Twitter. They usually respond fast there.
have applied only for transcript for wes and while reverification came mg university only reverfied my transcript and charged me 50$. Now wes responded all my process is accepted and provided me Canadian evaluation certificate.
Thanks for the update
Hai i have completed my application for the transcripts about 3 weeks ago and now i received a message from university telling that the application is under process.
How can i apply for the genuineness verification right now to avoid further delay?
I saw two options-one is the payment link provided by mkerala of mgu epay page and another one i saw is at the same page for the application of transcript in university site.which one should i select?Is there any need to resubmit the degree certificates,10th,12th and the degree grade cards?
Also for both degree and for pg certificates seprate genuineness verification is required?
You can follow the same process as with transcript to request for genuineness verification. Anyway it is a separate request and you need to submit it all again.
Hi,
Just out of curiosity, if someone’s secondary verification got completed recently, can you tell me the current timeline for its completion from beginning till end. I am waiting for email from the University, as WES informed me about the re-verification
I will let others who completed it recently answer.
