FSW2014 - Will it be too late to apply NOC 2172

[sukrit_v]

Hi Experts,

I am a newbie to this forum though I've been following it for a while now. I am going to send my application in mid of November for FSW2014. Will it be late to submit application in November mid for FSWP 2014? :'(

I scored Overall 6 in IELTS and giving it again to score higher in November first week. I went abroad to implement the project early this year and things got delayed - right from fetching transcripts from university, WES evaluation, etc. I am currently waiting for WES evaluation report. I had sent requests to HR from current and previous IT firms to receive experience letter with no more delays.

I am working as software engineer in current organisation though I am involved in database analysis and ETL programming (Unix shell scripting). I am confused under which NOC I will fall and which will be safe bet since I am late in applying already

While choosing NOC which is given preference - designation OR roles and responsibilities in letter. I can relate 4 NOC with the nature of work I am doing currently or in the past. NOC 2171 to 2174 but 2172 looks more like my current work profile. If i consider my past experience i can consider other three NOC's too. I have total 7 years IT experience.

Please advise.

Hey sukrit_v,
since IT NOCs are pretty hot this year you'd better pick the least polular one and apply ASAP. Your responcibilities are more importatn than the role title, hopefully you'll be able to match your experience with any NOC suitable for late application.

Good luck!

What are your individual IELTS scores? You must have scored at least 6 in each of the four IELTS categories to apply for FSW. An overall score of 6 isn't necessarily good enough.

Forget about applying under NOC 2174. It has already reached the cap. By the time you apply it will also be too late for 2171. Go for 2172.

hi frnds..

my friend is working with a american bank as a credit analyst for almost 2 yrs ...... his education differs from his work .. he has done BSc it(3yrs) and Msc it(2yrs) in 2011....

now he wanted to apply under NOC 2172...
so our doubts are that will embassy refuse it on grounds that there is mismatch in studies and job ...... or these are just ment for pointss. ??

Plz advise.. should he apply or not.
