What is your current occupation ? Your open work permit does not have a NOC but your occupation does ...you need at least 1 year of continuos work experience in one occupation (skill A or B )

Look for your occupation here to get your NOC

I have inputted my NOC code already but in intended occupation it is specifically asking for NOC of wrok permit, which is not applicable for PGWP, it should have been a non compulsory answer

Same story here. I also have more than one year Canadian work experience. CRS points for Canadian work experience are 0 according to my online profile. But the CRS Point System is showing 35 points with spouse and 40 without.

Is there a glitch in the online system since it is new?

GUYS CHILL OUT PGWP IS ELIGIBLE under CEC class so thats why EXPRESS ENTRY IS ALSO VALID
PUT THE NOC CODE WHICH YOU ARE HAVING OCCUPATION IN CANADA FOR THE LAST 1-2 YEARS
SEE THE BELOW LINK

While working under a post-graduate work permit to get experience to qualify for the Canadian Experience Class, can I switch employers?

Yes. The post-graduation work permit is an “open” work permit, meaning that you can work for any Canadian employer unless there are restrictions listed on the work permit. Keep in mind that skilled work experience is needed to qualify for the Canadian Experience Class. Skilled work experience means working in an occupation that is listed under the National Occupational Classification (NOC) at Skill Type 0 (managerial occupations), or Skill Level A (professional occupations) or Skill level B (technical and trade occupations).

It explicitly asks for NOC written on the work-permit, if PGWP holders are supposed to fill this section they had to make the option. Best would be to contact CIC.
