Hi All,

Myself and my spouse moved to Canada in Sep 2022 and my spouse is on Closed WP (LMIA exempt) and I am on OWP (Open work permit).
Both have 1+ years of Canadian experience.

My queries are as below:

1. I am creating EE profile (on OWP) and the answer for job offer question for LMIA is No. Even then will I be considered under CEC?
Because, I am taking English test sooner than my spouse (Who is on Closed LMIA exempt permit).
2. Is the NOC 21232 correct for software developer? We both are software developers.

Thank you.

1. You answer NO.
2. Don‘t know. You match job responsibilities, not title, to the NOC.
