My IELTS scores are:
reading 5.5
speaking 6.0
listening 5.5
writing 4.0
I also have 2 years of Canadian experience. My job is at NOC B level. Why was my application rejected?

What country are you apply to, and what reason was given for the rejection?– GagravarrJul 6, 2016 at 10:40

1You don't seem to meet the English (or French) language requirements. For NOC B, you need at least CLB 5 which means the Writing score needs to be 5.0. See this page.– mkennedyJul 6, 2016 at 18:13

@mkennedy, Do you know what the question is?– ouflak ♦Jul 7, 2016 at 6:17

@ouflak I edited the question yesterday but it had to be approved. OP is trying for Canadian permanent residence. At least one reason it was denied is the IELTS scores. It's not a duplicate of our express entry IELTS question.– mkennedyJul 7, 2016 at 13:51

With a job classification of NOC B and applying under the Canadian Experience class, you have to have English language scores that equal a Canadian Language Board (CLB) of CLB 5 or 6. The equivalent IELTS scores are:
IELTS
NOC CLB Level Test results for each ability
Listening Reading Writing Speaking
B 6 5.5 5.0 5.5 5.5
B 5 5.0 4.0 5.0 5.0
Source: Language testing
Because your Writing score is 4.0, you do not appear to meet the English qualification. There may be other reasons why your application was refused, but this is almost certainly one of them.
