I am missing more than 70 points for this issue, thank for your help.

In your situation (experience is in two different companies in even it is same NOC) you will not awarded for Canadian work experience points, however you will qualify for CEC. Due to system will not recognize 2 employer's NOC. Therefore, less then 1 year and no points for Canadian experience.

BUt it doen's matter how many categories I qualified, the most important is the points that I get. really? so even though with FSW and CEC meeting the requirements but with less than 400 I must wait for the next months to get the ITA, but If I can get that extra points for the 1 year of canadian work experience I could get the ITA on next draw,

Logically you should have get points, but the system is horrible. I know it's sad.

the trick to get full points lies in the way you write your experience.
For example: in your case let's say you started in Jan2014 with company x till august 2014 and started working for another in the same month or sept. All you got to do is that your write that that you worked for x till july and started with y since august. in this way you will get full points and also you are not lying. its the system which doesnt recognize that you could have left 1 company in a particular month and started with another in the same month.
