My PR application (CEC) is under progress now. I got the AOR.

As my work permit got expired during late 2012, I had to travel back to my native country in order to apply for new work permit. I got a new work permit & returned back to Canada recently. But NOC category in my new work permit is different from previous work permit (& the one in CEC application). Do I need to inform CPP-Ottawa about this NOC change now?

Thanks.

No, you're fine as long as your job description matches the noc code and your initial work permit in your cec application. Once you accumulate one year (2 years in foreign worker stream) experience in a skilled position, you're good to go. Afterwards it doesnt matter where you work. But you must always maintain a valid status in Canada.

1) My PR application (CEC) is under progress now and received AOR on Sep 4 2012. Just realized that my Work Permit (Intra Company Transfer from Mumbai to Montreal) had NOC = 0213 and I mentioned NOC = 2173 in CEC application. Do you think they may reject my application?

2) Also in my company's letter, NOC code is not mentioned. Would that cause application to be rejected?

3) Is there something I can do now before it gets rejected?

Please reply.
