I am working with a Canadian firm from June 2023 till present. At the time of joining I didn’t pay attention to the job title and job duties.

But in Dec 2023 I realized my job duties match with the noc 12200, so I got my title revised and also requested employer to reissue me a letter with the job duties am actually performing. The employer revised that and provided me the role change letter in Jan 2024.

Should I consider my work experience from June 2023 itself or I have to wait till Dec 2024.

In reference letter should I get both the titles mentioned with the same job duties ? Or should I just keep my current title ? The salary was same and there is no promotion. It is just my employer and I didn’t really care about the duties and titles when they hired, but my work is completely of noc code 12200.

Would reference letter along with bank statement, tax document would be sufficient . Or am I require

1) I assume the NOC on your is 12200? If it is not your employer will have to amend the WP first. Your roles and responsibility letter alone won't suffice.

2) Do your 2 different office title duties fall under different NOC code responsibilities? If both duties are 70% similar to 12200 you shouldn't worry.

Job titles or designations don't matter. If you are on a closed WP then what matters is the WP NOC code definition on the IRCC website it should match the roles and responsibilities letter, that way you can apply for PR using that.

Hi, thank you for your quick response.

I am on an open work permit .

At the time of accepting the offer, I didn’t pay attention to the job title and duties. But as soon as I realized, I mentioned the employer that these duties and title are not what is mentioned on the offer letter. They acknowledge that and issue me a role change letter . So actually they just revised from what was actually written incorrect. But on previous salary slips and offer letter it shows billing specialist .

If I get the reference letter just mentioning the current title with the current duties ( actually did since day 1) would it matter ?

If your actual duties haven't changed, are all mentioned in your reference and are aligned with the NOC, then you are absolutely good.

What about pay stubs ? Because the title on first six months is of billing specialist (tier4 )and then the accounting bookkeeper (tier2). Won’t they question ?

Should I get both my titles mention with same job duties ?

Or only the current title with the job duties ?

Just to add the salary was not changed because it is just redefining duties and title to match with what I have been doing

You need a reference from employer that confirms your duties and with dates of employment, salary, work hours etc. Job title doesn't matter at all.

Noted, thank you.
So am I good to conclude : I ll request employer for the reference letter with two titles ( Billing Specialist - from period) and accounting bookkeeper from a specific period with job duties as per the noc code 12200.. and that is sufficient ?

And one more tip, don't just copy NOC duties, it might cause some issues, the duties just need to be properly aligned with the NOC.

Yes , that my company kept as the way I perform it . But yes definitely it is 70-80% aligned with NOC code ( just the words don’t match with it)

My consultant is saying as the noc code for billing specialist is tier 4 this may rise concern, even thought job duties matching with noc code 12200.
