It could be, but you're saying you've put the same NOC under your 1 year of Canadian experience, right? So it shouldn't be an issue.
You're correct that under CEC, they don't mention explicitly that your minimum work experience has to be in your primary NOC like it does for FSW, so it should not be a factor.
I'm just trying to think of ways the system might be wrongly registering your information.
