Hi,

I have received an ITA on April 11th(STEM Occupation draw). I am filling the fields to submit my eAPR online. Before I got picked by IRCC, my NOC code in my Express Entry was 21232 software developers and programmers. However, after discussing with my employer, they suggests me to change that to 21231 - Software engineers and designers. Will my application for PR be affected by this action? I know both NOC code are one of the STEM occupations and I will still be qualified. However, I am looking for suggestions, and hoping to get someone sharing their experience regarding this.

Thanks! I am looking forward to your response.
