Hey guys,
does anybody know how to change an occupation on the work permit? The immigration officer made a mistake when I entered Canada and it says now "wholesale manager" instead of Operations Co-ordinator, what can be an issue when applying for Canada Experience Class I guess, as my job contract says Operations Co-ordinator..

I have contacted CIC by phone and they emailed me an information how to amend a change in the "record of landing", but there is no field for the occupation change, jus for name, d.o.b., date of entry etc..

Anyone knows what to do, if I shloud still use this particular form or there is other way?

Thanks a lot

First talk to your employer, What occupation they have filled out for you in the application. If CIC made the mistake then you can call them an address the issue with them. They will certainly be able to show you the path.
