URGENT - Wrong SOC Code

Post by Livingfaith » Sat Nov 26, 2011 3:19 pm

SOC 2131 - IT Strategy and Planning professional was used instead of 2132 as my position is Business Systems Analyst.
Employer was told to use the best code that describes the role. Both job description are applicable but the title is more suited to 2132.

border agency advised that COS should be canceled and new one assigned.

My question is will the cancellation of this COS affect the allocation of certificates given the employer as this COS has not been used yet?


Pls help this is very urgent.

well, if you already satisfy market test...then its a no- brainer; get different soc code on your cos.

you can get unlimited (unrestricted) COS so thats all fine

Thanks Arsenal.

I am on PSW so RLMT not required.

Issue is the time available to get another COS as visa is expiring soon.
pls advise if you know how long it takes.
