Hello Everyone,

I received ITA in August under Federal express entry program. While going through work experience requirements again I read about needing license for NOC 2173.
I studied at a Canadian university and have a full time offer which is not related to 2173 responsibilities but the role is in IT. So if I don’t wish to work in 2173 NOC profession do I have to get license to leverage my past experience of application developer.
Your help in this regard is greatly appreciated as I am confused about what to do. I found this link so far https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/regulation-of-noc-2173.500798/#post-6093220
but don’t know if this applies to my case as well.

Best Regards,
Priyanka

If you received ITA under FSWP, then no need of license.

if you have received an ITA under SINP, then license is required

Hello,

Does NOC 2173 requires License?? 2173 looks more apt for my Job Description, but if it requires License is it ok if i go ahead with 2174??
For Express Entry license is not required. It was required only for SINP.

Me too have the same confusion. My roles and duties matches with both NOC 2173 and NOC 2174.

So if I create my EE profile under 2173, that woudnt be a problem for both PR and job...right, preetsingh? That is, I can find a job under NOC 2173 and start working without any Professional Engineer (P.Eng) license. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

You can, 2173 is not licensed.
