NOC Code......
0131
I am in a dilemma with my NOC code having worked for 4+ years in a Telecom Company as an Engineer. I want to take NOC 2171 (IT consultants, analyst) which kind of goes with my job duties having had a lot of experience in analyzing business issues concerning the telecom/IT equipment. Another reason behind my inclination towards 2171 is to apply for SINP - OID. Trouble is the education requirement in NOC 2171 is CSE/BBA background, not EEE. EEE is only available in NOC 2147.

Now, MY CRS score is 376, after masters in Business later in 2017 will get me up to 403. But if i get clb 9 level in IELTS, that score gets to 464 - u can see the huge lift which certainly enhances my chances in being nominated for Express Entry.

My question is if i apply with NOC 2171 now, can i change it to 2147 later if i want to after being nominated in EE category. Will that pose a problem? If it does, then I will forget about SINP and stick to 2147.

Thanks for checking my question.
