1) The guy was white, 5'11, 13 stone, no hair, kind of tourquoise eyes, with a cut on the left side of his face.

2) The suspect is Caucasian, 180cm, 82.5kg, with a shaved head, blue green eyes and a scar on his left cheek.

Unfortunately, in your example they aren't 'just like'.

Best of luck to you.

They do keep a copy of the application and of course they are going to compare the two.

i would not advise anyone to copy the NOC code, my advise is if you dont like to do the form filling go and employ someone to do it, i have seen so many people get turned down lately.............
If someone copied the NOC code word for word then i would class that person unable to deal with the amount of paperwork that will be coming there way.
thanks butch
