Hi Phoebe it's not clear what you are waiting for.Is it in country unrestricted CoS? Or are you waiting for a decision of your application?If it is for CoS then it seems very long wait.

It seems like a minor error.Maybe you can write a covering letter explaining the mistake to ukba when you send the hard copy to them.Do not cancel the application.If your date of birth is correct ukba should understand but do send them a letter.That would be my advice.

I meant UKBA guidelines maintenance etc.Some SOC codes are being abolished.Pls make sure that your job is there on the list.There shouldn't be any issues with CoS though.
