Hi All,

Got stucked in what data to be filled in Schedule 8 economic classes item 7: Your work experience in canada

I have a first expired work permit in 2009 with occupation as EMBEDDED SYS SOFTWARE DESIGNER (fyi.. I don't have a copy of this work permit to include in CEC application)

I have a second expired work permit in 2010 with occupation as EMBEDDED SYS SOFTWARE DESIGNER

I have a third active/current work permit till Dec 2011 with occupation as SOFTWARE DEVELOPER - SERVICES

In all the above periods, my actual occupation is Software Testing and associated NOC code is 2173

Occupation - What occupation should i mention here as there are two different occupations in my work permits and these both are different from my actual job
NOC - 2173 - I guess noc 2173 should be fine whether you are a developer or tester. Please correct me if i am wrong.

Can some one help in printing correct information for item 7???????

Quick response is appreciated as i am in the middle of this...

Thanks guyssssssss

I too agree with you that the NOC code you choose is the only one matching:

Software Engineers and Designers (NOC 2173)

It should be OK... I think they would all have the same NOC...
