Just one ghost update last month on the status : Make sure you read your messages and take action when we ask you to. This will help move the application process along"

No I don’t think it’s bad sign buddy. It just means your eligibility is in process so don’t worry. Good thing will come soon :).

Excellent Work !!! i cannot thank you enough for all the great work you do to help the fellow aspirants. To continue this thread and mutual knowledge sharing live @USProgrammer can you please write about how to get a job in NOC 2174?? or point me to anything that leads to this.
Hi @dhari143. I don't understand the question; could you clarify? It looks like you are already 2173. I had to choose between 2173 and 2174 and I decided my ability to substantiate my technical achievements lined up better with 2174 (which seems to have worked).

Just FYI: I'm not in Canada. I work as a 2173/2174 in the US remotely for a company in another state. My boss wants to keep me on after I move to Canada, but we're not sure if that will be possible due to contractual obligations with data not leaving the US. We will cross that bridge when we come to me actually moving.

I think he wants some general info regarding how to get a job in Canada if you're a programmer. What's the outlook for programmers in Canada according to you?

Also, just curious, what kind of programming does your job entail - backend/front-end/full-stack/mobile/web, etc. and for what kind of company (startup/big company/consulting)?

It is not a bad sign at all. The message you had is not a ghost update but a normal status when crossing the 90 days post AOR. I suggest you order a new setcof GCMS it will help you to understand the current status of your application. Good luck!

I have no idea. LOL. I'm not there and I'm hoping to keep my US job (paid through a PEO). If not, I'll probably look for remote jobs first again.

Also, just curious, what kind of programming does your job entail - backend/front-end/full-stack/mobile/web, etc. and for what kind of company (startup/big company/consulting)?
Mostly backend (can't really detail the systems without giving away too much). Medium size company that is well-established in our space and growing faster than our competitors.
