Major changes are expected in NOC codes from November 2022 onwards

The Canadian economy is growing day by day, and changes are being made in immigration law to meet its shortage of in-demand occupations. Labour shortage is one of the main problems being faced by Canada as of now. Canada's immigration system is coming back on track at a much faster pace after the pandemic hits. As a result, the freshers are being given opportunities. IRCC is planning to update the current NOC by the end of November 2022. The revised NOC codes will most likely affect Express Entry and PNP candidates, particularly those with NOC Skill Level B jobs Some of the newly added Occupations to the existing list. The biggest change in the NOC 2021 is that the current four-category “skill level” structure has been replaced by a six-category system. The new system outlines the level of Training, Education, Experience, and Responsibilities (TEER) required to enter each occupation. The Occupations that will be added to the NOC 2022, have the below mentioned 16 new occupations: Payroll administrators Dental assistants and dental laboratory assistants Nurse aides, orderlies, and patient service associates Pharmacy technical assistants and pharmacy assistants Elementary and secondary school teacher assistants Sheriffs and bailiffs Correctional service officers By-law enforcement and other regulatory officers Estheticians, electrologists, and related occupations Residential and commercial installers and servicers Pest controllers and fumigators Other repairers and servicers Transport truck drivers Bus drivers, subway operators, and other transit operators Heavy equipment operators Aircraft assemblers and aircraft assembly inspectors. The Occupations that failed to make it to the list are: Other performers Program leaders and instructors in recreation, sport, and fitness Tailors, dressmakers, furriers, and milliners Although the above three occupations will become ineligible for Express Entry as of November, they may still be eligible for other programs such as Provincial Nominee Programs. Most significantly, candidates with experience in one of the above 16 occupations previously unable to submit an Express Entry profile may now become eligible.
