How New NOC System Will Affect Express Entry Eligibility? (NOC 2016 vs NOC 2021)

What is NOC (National Occupational Classification) Code?

NOC stands for National Occupational Classification. It is Canada’s national system of organizing and describing occupations. NOC is used to classify occupations according to their skill level and skill type. This system assigns a four-digit unique where each number describes a different characteristic like the type of industry, the type of education, and the other skills required for that specific occupation.

Canada-NOC 2021 vs noc 2016

There are 10 different occupational categories from 0-9, and there are four categories of skill levels from a-d. The first digit of the NOC code represents the occupational category. For example 0- all management level occupations, 1- business, finance, administrational occupations, etc. In simple words, the first digit tells you where the person works. The second digit represents the skill level.

The first two digits represent the major group. The first three digits represent the minor group, and the four-digit code represents the unit group.

How Does Canada’s New NOC System Work? National Occupational Classification 2022

The former NOC skill levels will get transferred to the new TEER system as follows-

How NOC System Changes Will Affect Canada Permanent Resident Programs / Express Entry?

To apply for Permanent Residency (PR), you must at least have 12 months of full-time (or an equal amount of part-time) skilled work experience in Canada. You must also meet or exceed the required language levels needed for the NOC skill level of your work experience in each language ability. Therefore, this suggests that immigration to Canada requires candidates to have experience in a skilled job.

The new NOC 2021 system will open up various grounds for candidates to apply which were not available earlier. This new NOC 2021 system can be seen in a positive light as it may help boost the workforce of the country. It will also increase the number of immigrants. Even though new opportunities have been opened up, everything comes with its price. The upcoming years will say how effective November 16, 2022, was.
