Dear forum members,
I am an unsuccessful principal who applied under NOC 1112 Financial Analysts (my application was deemed incomplete due to a blank section and is now on its way back to me).
However, I have also worked for more than 1 year under NOCs 1114 Other financial officers and 5125 Translators. After receiving my application package back, I would like to submit two applications in NOC 1114 and NOC 5125 (both are cold NOCs).
Could the seniors kindly advise me on the issue of what I should write in the field “Intended occupation” of my Generic Application form in each one of the two applications?
I have seen a wide-spread opinion on the forum that one should indicate his/her primary NOC (under which he/she is applying) as his/her intended occupation in Canada. However, if I indicate intended occupation 1114 in the application under primary NOC 1114 and intended occupation 5125 in the application under primary NOC 5125, won't it be considered as misrepresentation?
Also, according to NOC 2011 classification, to be able to work under occupation 5125 Translators in Canada one has to comply with Employment requirements which include either a university degree in translation or five years of experience. I have neither of the two. Therefore, I am not sure if I can indicate 5125 Translators as my intended occupation in Canada at all (as I realise I will not be able to work under that occupation in Canada due to not complying with employment requirements)?
Finally, in my rejected application I indicated my current occupation as 1112 Financial Analysts. However, it might also qualify as 1114 Other financial officers as I am performing a really wide spectrum of duties at my workplace. The question is, is it possible to mention my current occupation as 1114 Other financial officers in my new applications or will it be considered to be misrepresentation?
Thank you very much in advance for your help! You're doing great job on this forum, guys!
