You can't use 3219 as your primary NOC. You can only use a NOC where you have at least one year of continuous work experience.
Thank you for your response.
Should I use 3132 as my primary NOC even if I'm not licensed in Canada? Would that affect any jobs if I ever get ITA or when I land in Canada? Or I can work other NOC too once in Canada already?
Sorry for this much info, however i get CRS 0 once submitted and shows ineligible.

Good day to all,
Like every one else here, I also experienced this kind of situation. But as I back-read here at this forum, it seems that what causes my 0 point is perhaps I have not spend a minimum of a year with my new employer yet, as I just shifted company last March. Am I right to say this? Also if that's the case, can I just use/indicate my previous work experiences (still under the same NOC), instead?
Thank you all guys for answering our questions so far.

Thank you all guys for answering our questions so far.
To be eligible for EE- FSW, you need one year, continuous, full-time skilled work experience in one NOC. So if you have that with your previous work and employment letters to prove you worked there, then yes, you can count it.
