Hi, the idea is for you to match your roles and responsibilities with those on the NOC list and not for you to state your exact roles word for word and expect CIC to accept it. The CIO officers are not subject matter experts, they work with a simple checklist. So tone down the language of your JD and try to get it to match what is on the NOC list. Even if you don't confer with clients, there are other duties on the list which you can use to show you qualify for the NOC. So rephrase your JD (without telling lies) to ensure it matches the NOC stated JDs up to 80% and you are good to go. Remember, you are trying to convince somebody who probably has no clue about your occupation that you are eligible. All the best :)
If I'm not telling any lies and I go with this JD as in my opinion it covers all the aspects of a system security analyst's job then do i still need to rephrase it? What do you mean by 'tone down'?

Thanks much for your response.

Hi, you're still not getting it. See this phrase you used, "I go with this JD as in my opinion it covers all the aspects of a system security analyst's job". That's where you derailed.

Please don't use your opinion, use the duties stated on the NOC list. Take each duty stated on the NOC list and use in similar phrasing, not copy and paste. Leave out the ones that don't expressly apply to you like conferring with clients, then you can add some of yours that you do which aren't on the list in simple language that a clerical officer at CIO won't get confused by. Keep it simple and as close to NOC list as possible, that's all.
All the best :)

The NOC for Medical Lab Tech is no longer on the list
as this particular occupation came up in 2013.
You will have to wait for Express Entry from Jan 2015
Best of luck

In my CES form I accidentally wrote my birth year 2014 instead of 1991. It was a very genuine mistake. And i corrected it on the same form by cutting the wrong year and writing the correct year beside it. Will it cause any problems?

It's a minor error so let's hope the reviewing officer will overlook it. :)

You fund your account with your bank and request for the international DD (not local) to be issued in favor of 'The Receiver General of Canada'. You can also just give the fee to Thomas Cook where you don't need an account and they raise the draft for you. You fill the the fee payment form accordingly, indicating 'bank cheque or draft'. You include both the form and your draft in your application package. Simple :)
