Hii

I got an ITA in the last draw.

When i re checked my application, In the work History page, on page 1, I have entered my NOC code as 2171 instead of 2173. But in the work History page (where we enter our experience) i entered it as 2173 ( my original NOC code)

Will this be an issue? Should i re-submit the application ?

This NOC crap is driving me nuts as well. I am an Industrial Engineer and currently working in a manufacturing company, so this matches NOC 0911 (manufacturing managers). My previous work experience however is more of NOC 0211 (engineering managers), since it was not in manufacturing. Both NOCs are very smiliar though. I am not sure how much it matters as to which one i pick!! I picked NOC 0211 (engineering managers) as my primary NOC, and selected the same for each of my job positions in work history. I am now thinking to change my primary NOC to 0911. I really have no idea what to do, and how much these details actually matter! Thing is, the more you read on forums, websites etc. the more confused you become! Hate readdinnnnggg!!! :(

If anyone has any suggestions/advice, please share!

Thats the issue in here. I think the answers which we filled in Express entry might not have any impact on the immigration decision.

Because, once we accept the invition and start filling out the online application, it is again asking for work history.

And yes it is very confusing. My job has three NOC codes and i do not know what i should fill in


Thanks
