Subject: Job title, In trouble??
  Hi forum, heres the deal, I got a work permit under the NAFTA, and beacuse of that I didnt need HRDSC confirmation, I´m a Vet and when I aplied for the work permit they asked for reference letters to prove experience in your field, I was working at a goverment lab doing diseases diagnose(vet stuff), so my boss in the lab ave me this reference letter and I appear as a Lab technician, the tittle didnt matter to me because at that time I wasnt really thinking about applying for PR after sometime. Now when checking the work experience requirement for PR under the SW category, I just realized that lab technician does not appear int he NOC list, my question is:
When I get my boss to writte a new reference letter for the PR process I ask him to writte Veterinarian instead Lab technician on the job title, doing this, will I have trouble with this new letter giving me a different job title than the first one issued for the work permit?
Good luck and thank you so much.
