I went to the local MP and she wrote a very detailed email. I hope I hear back in 2 days and it helps. She said, it happens often and usually, people have to re-apply. I also received a new letter of employment from my first employer which clearly states the duties that you would find under NOC 2283 (B-level). It is to prove that my work experience is retroactive.

She also said, I should apply for restroration.

Thanks all for your help.

Tough luck. Hope it gets sorted out. All the best

Also get your GCMS notes for your PR application, dont get email one, get the hard copy (CD) one. Apply it right away, it will give you some info of what VO did.
I know, this has been asked a dozen times, but I am simply too done with my nerves right now to find it. Where can I request GMCS notes?
I found thid webpage, but it is an external service. Can I request it from CIC directly?
http://www.visafile.info/choose-your-option/

Or is it this one https://atip-aiprp.apps.gc.ca/atip/welcome.do ? Is it free?

Thanks.

yes link is https://atip-aiprp.apps.gc.ca/atip/welcome.do ?

In that select the free one, no need to pay $5, before you select the option read the description, where it says $5 leave that and select the other option

Based on my understanding, you would definitely qualify for EE, especially since you can get a closed Work Permit, which requires LMIA.

After you speak with the lawyer, apply for EE asap, you might get your PR in just a few months. Let us know what the lawyer says. Wish you all the best!

I am already in the Pool since today. I will speak further with the lawyer about this and wait what the MP says. I also need to get an assessment for my education, otherwise, my points are not enough, I think, and they might never draw me. Thank you.

To get a closed work permit, I need to find a job that sponsors me. That is difficult today.

I really believe I received the wrong NOC in 2012... the NOC's were changed in 2011, so the duties were clearly 2283 and somehow, don't ask me how, CIC made it a C-level. I would not be surprised if the company faked information to save money. There had been a lot of rumors and a lot of fuss when they eventually had to pay us more and accept we were B-level candidates. The financial situation of the company was quite bad - it still is or always was. So they cheated a lot, which is no surprise. The government has an eye on them anyway.

I have just found evidence that the position of video game tester had already been listed under NOC 2283 in 2009 and maybe even before that year.

I print everything out and save it and will pass it on to my lawyer. I think, the company just cheated its way out to pay less for many years.

I have just found more evidence... call me paranoid, but I used to keep all emails I received from my employers since 2012 (actually when I bought my laptop). And in one I had the letter clearly stating that the immigration laws changed in July 2012 and our job position/status. The letter however was dated March 2013. The company kept it a secret for 8 months and did not want to pay us retroactively for the months either. This is illegal. Also, I left Canada in late March 2013, so how could I have changed anything about my status? I was living in a small village in the middle of nowhere and also had my car sold at the time already. I will show this to the lawyer. I am happy I found it.

So I was suggested to re-apply via Express Entry. The thing I am concerned about is the "pool"-thing. The lawyer told me that EVERYONE who meets the required points will get an invitation. I cannot believe this. Is that true?

How many points do you have under EE?

CIC is consistently drawing around 460 for last few draws. If you can able to get around 460 points, you will most likely get an invitation to apply. Minimum points vary draw to draw but as soon as you meet that minimum points required for a particular draw, you will be invited straightway..
