Hi Mena,
This mix up does not call for any serious concern as long as your JD is not materially different from what obtains under your NOC code.

Cheers.

[Olabisi2010]

Hi Sherry00,

Thank you for your update but like I said in my post earlier these are guides and subjected to updates from time to time. The VO responsibe for applicants in various jurisdictions will advice on needed documents. It is also possible that the AOR will have the requirements from the Visa Office applicable to their countries.

We can check the link applicable to applicants to the London Visa Office in the link below;
