Intended Occupation on IMM-0008? (Generic Application for Canada)

[goldfinger]

Hello,

My wife and I are getting hung up on what she should put for "intended occupation" on the generic application form. We originally put "unknown," as we aren't really sure of what she will do, but one of the threads here advised putting SOMEthing, so we put "Case Manager," as she's currently going for a bachelor's in psychology, and she's taken a class related to that field, and so far it's been the most interesting career prospect to her.

My concern is that we have basically zero clue what she's going to wind up doing. We don't really know what it takes to become credentialed as a case manager in Canada, so I don't want to make liars out of the two of us for the sake of filling that field.

any advice?

Not applicable will suffice in this instance because she is under no obligation to intend to do anything. I thought you'd sent your application off last week, Goldfinger!

For my 9 yr old son I put pilot because that's what he wants to be, you aren't limited to what you put there. On other types of apps it would be very important.
