Confusion between NOC code 21231 vs 21232 while submitting application post-ITA

[shobhitmehta23]

Hi,
Me and my girlfriend have received ITAs (applied separately) under express entry, however are now confused if we used the correct NOC code and are thinking of changing it for the final application. Both of us are Software Engineers (with different duties mentioned on job letter) and are confused between 21231 (Software Engineers and Designers) and 21232 (Software Developers and Programmers).

Here are my job duties -

• Design core, backend software components
• Code using primarily C/C++, Java, PHP and Hack
• Interface with other teams to incorporate their innovations and vice versa •
• Conduct design and code reviews •
• Analyze and improve efficiency, scalability, and stability of various system resources •
• Establish self as an owner of a particular component, feature or system with expert end-to-end understanding •
• Successfully completes projects at large scope while maintaining a consistent high level of productivity

Here are my girlfriend's job duties -

• Code high volume software using primarily C++ and Java
• Create web applications using primarily php
• implement web interfaces using XHTML, CSS and javascript
• Build report interfaces and data feed

I am thinking my duties align more concretely with 21231 while her's with 21232. I would appreciate any thoughts or opinion on this.

the former are mostly analysts who don't code functional, the later code. This is my understanding the way I have guided a couple of subordinates in my team earlier.

Whatever fits the 70% overlapping duties criteria should be good enough.

Hi , did 21232 helped you ?

21232 and 21231 both works. Me and my GF went with different NOC and both got approved.

21232 and 21231 both works. Me and my GF went with different NOC and both got approved.

Thank you. BTW, I'm in the same company with you. I know it from your job duties, which are exactly as our company's job posting. How did you get the letter with the job duty? From HR or from your manager?

Hi

Did you use the same job duties as listed above? I am asking because I am worried that they look for word to word match.Mine is also 21231 .So just wanted to check if you got approval for these job duties?
