Hello,

I saw this on the Canada website

Your work experience must be:
  • in the same type of job as your primary NOC
  • within the last 10 years
  • paid work (volunteer work, unpaid internships don’t count)

My primary NOC set is 2171, however my work history looks like this:

Current company (almost 1 year) - NOC 2173
Previous company (5 years) - NOC 2171

Question is, should I change my primary NOC with my current company?

NOC 2171 is fine. No problem in that.

Thanks, so as long as the Primary NOC is in the work history, everything should be fine, correct?
As long as you have 12 months of continuous experience in primary NOC.
