Hi guys,


I need some guidance. My NOC for current job in country of residence falls under skill level A - NOC 2171, however, I am getting a job offer under Skill level C - 6552 and they are ready to do my LMIA.

My consultant is telling me to go ahead and take the risk and get the LMIA. He has advised that when I apply for PR, I might be called for interview with the immigration to justify why I am moving to Canada for a much lower skilled job. A>C.. He has advised that I can justify and clarify in the interview to them and that it will not be a big deal. Can anyone guide me if its the right move? Can different NOC job offered with LMIA be an issue in PR process ?

Anyone faced a similar situation ?

Please let me know as I am losing time.

It's possible you may have difficulty getting the work permit approved since you are moving from a NOC A to a NOC C job.

You won't get the 50 job offer points under Express Entry. This job offer is useless for PR through Express Entry.

Basically the organization will apply for LMIA. Based on which consultant will apply for PNP for me under Atlantic pilot program.

As long as you have previous experience in the NOC C role, you will be fine.
