I guess the description is more technical and the Immigration officer will have trouble decoding the technical terms. The NOC code is about management aspect of IT (People, systems and delivery) rather than managing systems (servers, printers, networks).
I think it would be helpful if you could rephrase the technical terms.
   

Management, supervision and scheduling of  all help desk activities at the districts  level.
Hold regular status meetings with team.
Effectively communicated relevant IT-related information to superiors.
Used to deliver engaging, informative, well-organized presentations.

These terms, out of your profile seem apt to me


Just my thought

You can highlight your managerial role more than technical details
Put them in points and not in multiple paras.
Something like this ( just an example, you can add more based on your current duties)

 >Responsible for Requirements Gathering, Business Process Analysis, and the Synthesis of Information gathered into a Business Application Software Design.
 >Responsible in Effort and Budget Estimation for the projects.
 >Control the budgets and expenditures of the project and provide status to Senior Management.
 >Responsible for Planning, Organizing and Directing Team members in the project for the execution and completion of the project.
 >Assemble and manage teams of information systems personnel to Analyze, design, develop, implement the Customer requirements to Software Projects.
 >Managing the day-to-day technical and logistical operations of IT staffs including Scheduling, Assignment, and Task Performance Monitoring of Employees. Direct and Evaluate Project Execution.
 >Appraise team members yearly based on their performance and provide performance rating to HR
  > Technical Interview Panel member involved in recruiting Senior Software Engineers, Technical Leads and Project Leads for the Company.

There is a note in the form which mentions: "List only occupations that fall under Skill Type 0 or Skill Levels A or B"

My last 3 years experience falls under category 0213 Computer and Information Systems Managers
Previous 7 years fall under 2174 Computer Programmers and Interactive Media Developers

1. Does this mean I should only list my last 3 years experience?
2. Under the Occupation Should I write my official job title or NOC description which matches my role for example in my current role NOC description which matches my work experience is computer projects manager. Should i list that?
3. I am submitting my initial application to CIO, in the Main Duties I have only put briefs. What you guys have mentioned above is huge descriptions. Do we need to write details at this stage? If so it would require additional pages to be attached. What I wrote is:
-MANAGE IT PROJECTS
-BUSINESS PROCESS IMPROVEMENT
-ENHANCE CONTROLS
-REDUCE OPERATIONAL RISK
-INCREASE CUSTOMER SATISFACTION

Cheers!
