I have given CELPIP english test and scored as follows
Listening - 7
Speaking - 7
Reading - 6
Writing - 8

I would like to apply for PR. I am currently residing in Canada with Work Permit and as a Software Developer (NOC 2174).
As per policy of Immigration, I may not be able to apply for NOC 2174 with the above english score . Can I apply for NOC 2282?
Is there any concern if I apply for NOC 2282? or is there any possibility of rejection?

Please let me know.

Thanks

I did apply on 2174. My only advise is that give exam IELTS again and get better score if possible and you have enough time ... Applying on different noc may result in application rejection.. This is just a suggestion.

I really would suggest you to test English again.

I once read case like this rejected.

the reason is : because your work permit is 2174 , ( if your work permit doesn't mention 2174, you can try 2282 )

now you apply 2282, the CIC officer can question, your legal work experience is 2174 not 2282 .

if your work is 2282 , you should replace your work permit to make it legal.

however, as I said, if your work permit is open , just a title, software developer whatever, if no 2174 appeared on that paper,

then everything is ok, you only need pay enough attention with job duties.

and make sure the title is consistent in all the documents,

the title here is not important now.

I agree with these comments...you need to judge your situation...If you are on closed WP and your company applied under 2174, then you should apply ur PR also under the same code as the VO can easily take it a case of misinterpretion and lead to serious consequences.....Why take such a chance man....apply for IELTS....Use this link to read through sample papers and I am sure you will succeed...

Thanks for all your suggestions.

So as per your suggestions, I should not apply for NOC 2282 as my Work Permit scritly mentioned my profession/Occupation as Software Developer. And we know Software Developer belongs to NOC 2174.

On the other hand, if I apply for NOC 2174 with this English score (Listening - 7,Speaking - 7,Reading - 6,Writing - 8), then my PR application will definitely be rejected.

In this situation , I don't have any other option other than taking the english test again.

no, does 2174 mention in your work permit or just a title ?

and do you have LMO , does it mention 2174 or not ?

if no place mention 2174 , just mention a title software developer,

you still can apply 2282

Only title "Software Developer" is mentioned as profession in my work permit, NOC code is not mentioned.
I don't have LMO. I am a Intra company transferee (ICT).

Then go ahead, and pay enough attention on the job duties.

and check your offer letter or contract if mention duties.

if that duties can't match well with type B , still a trouble.


because in employer letter you need mention job duties again.

and when you apply work permit, there would be company support letter. which mention job duties too.

you should be aware that, all your history doc are actually in CIC data base.


So be carefull . all the information have no conflict,


the job title can't be used as NOC code guide . so you needn't worry it


my title is software developer too. and I use this write mail to CIC website, and I think my is A , but at last, they insist, mine is B and explain a lot .


they say, it depends on duties.
and your college background , like this job need computer program in college .etc.
even
your past work experience.


and , if everything is fine , please make sure you "educate" your manger well , who may get call and mess everything, if he doesn't pay attention with this intented changed


or if everything is fact, then you don't need worry it .

Job duties provided by your employer is what matters. Job title and NOC code you provide is for reference only.

So even if you apply under NOC 2282, CIC might still think your job description fits 2174 more, treat it as 2174 and then say you have applied a wrong NOC.

IMO, I would play safe and take IELTS/CELPIP again and get a better score.

My dear friend...I am also on ICT (Intra Company Transfer). WHile filing the case the comany has to very clearly statte under which NOC code are you applying and I am pretty sure that CIC would know that he applied under 2174 earlier and now he is now applyiing under 2282 and looking at his scores they may relate that to avoid getting better results in english he is trying a short route....Its a strict 'No" advice from me also.....

Urgent: Could you tell me , in which doc, your compnay mention the NOC code ?

is it you apply the work permit with all the doc you supply ?

or someone else help you done this ?

you have to know different work permit type means totally different thing.

some work permit have no LMO, usually, there would be no this step of NOC match happened.

Most of Intra company transfer , only limit you have to work in that company.
