u/Fragrant-Cost4212

Hi, I got my letter of rejection a few days ago due to NOC mismatch. I applied in CEC Outland with a 417 CRS score and got ITA in November 2025 (got lucky ngl).
I’m a Pastry Chef so I was under FEER2, and the agent concluded that my 2 different jobs in Canada were not respecting the correct NOC for Chef thus dropping to simple cook/pastry baker FEER3.
Score recalculated to 392 by the agent so under the lowest score of the draw.

My two years of Canadian work are soon gonna expire (I had to leave country in February 2025 right after my 2 years).

What should I do next ?

I’m a native French so it worth it to reapply with such a low score or should I aim for an employer willing to take me with the Francophone Mobility Program ?
