I have applied for NOC 2173 Software Engineers and Designers in SINP 2014 and recently got this letter:
Regulated Occupation: Your education and occupation are related to a profession in Saskatchewan which requires mandatory (compulsory) certification or licensing. Proof ofeligibility for Saskatchewan licensure from the regulatory body is required as part of the SINP application. For more information, please see the following link saskimmigrationcanada.ca/ismy-
occupation-regulated/ Please provide proof of eligibility for Saskatchewan licensure from the licensure from the regulatory body within 45 days from date of this letter.
AFAIK, 2173 Software engineer does NOT come under a regulated profession. It is an Information technology job (IT).
Regarding my eduction, my undergraduate degree in Mechanical Engineering, but I have being working as Software Engineer for more than 10 years and I recently got a masters degree in Software Engineering from USA.
Considering all of this, please reconsider and remove the requirement for mandatory certification or licensing.
