@nelsona and others.

I was refused TN visa at Peace Bridge on June, because officer said I don't qualify for under claimed category as ACCOUNTANT.
background:
Education: I have its combination of 2 years in Commerce and 2 Years in Masters in Economics. degrees from Pakistan. I got equivalency report from US agency which considered it as equivalent of Bachelor Degree.
Experience: I have 9 Years experience in large public sector experience as Senior financial Auditor in Pakistan and and then I moved Canada and worked as Information Technology Auditor for 6 years at various organizations. the Employer offered a job was titled as Internal Auditor (Information Technology) which included essential duties of auditor.
Refusal: officer said he is not satisfied because job duties are not of accountant because accountants only do number crunching, financial statement analysis or taxes and none of these are in job offer letter. he meant i dont qualify as accountant and I should find appropriate category.
can you please advise what category I should apply? My employer is willing to support to change letter content. and if we are changing something would it conflict with previous claim?
Thank You in advance.
