Applying as CEC-Inland, in EE my primary NOC is of the foreign experience (which also declared in 'Work History' and contributing to the points being calculated in Foreign year experience in last 10 years).
My current job since 1 yr in Canada have different NOC, and I am also claiming points of valid job offer for this current job, as have extended contract.

In my EE profile, should my primary NOC be of the job in Canada, or it can be of foreign experience?

Kindly advice! thanks

You would only need the primary NOC to match your foreign work experience if you wanted to qualify under FSW. You can change the NOC to that of your current job / future job offer, it will not affect your points.

Hi,

If I plan on applying for FSW, does it matter if I get/have a job in a different NOC than my primary/past skilled work experience during my during my PGWP period?
