Hi Folks,

I have a question regarding the posibility of my application being eventually rejected due to a stupid reason:

At the moment of application I had a total of 1.5 years of work in Canada, 0.505 years working under the NOC "Physicists and astronomers" and 0.995 years under the NOC "Mathematicians". the reason for the change of NOC is that got a research fellowship to work for the Applied mathematics department instead of the theoretical physics one. My job was exactly the same, the employer was the same and the responisbilities were exactly the same. The problem is that the renewal of my work permit, the immigration officer that processed it changed the NOC shown on the permit.

As I was one week from making 1 year under the new NOC the day I sent the application I hope that wouldn't be a problem either, but I was wondering of someone more experienced can give me some insight on what to expect.

Thanks a lot! :)

I think you can work under different NOCs, just you have 1 year experience in total
You could put 2 lines in your application form: one for one NOC, second for another NOC
And have reference letter which describe your responsibilities for two NOCs at the same time

I applied using 2 NOC codes as well as I obtained another job with a different company. I don't think this will be an issue.
