National Occupational Classification (NOC) Code

The National Occupational Classification (NOC) code is Canada’s official system for classifying all jobs. Each occupation is assigned a unique code based on:

  1. Skills required
  2. Main duties and responsibilities
  3. Level of education, training, and experience

Canada currently uses NOC 2021, which also categorizes jobs into TEER levels (0–4) to indicate the skill and education requirements for each role.

 

Importance of a NOC Code

 

Choosing the correct NOC code is crucial for Canadian immigration:

  1. Express Entry & PR Eligibility

    • Your work experience is evaluated based on your NOC. The correct code ensures you qualify for programs like Federal Skilled Worker, CEC, or PNP.

  2. TEER Level Matters

    • TEER levels determine eligibility and CRS points. Using the wrong level can reduce your score or disqualify you.

  3. Avoid Application Refusals

    • Mismatched NOC codes or duties can lead to refusals or misrepresentation concerns.

  4. Work Permits & Employer Compliance

    • Certain jobs require specific NOC codes for LMIA-exempt work permits or employer-sponsored applications.

  5. Planning Your Career Path in Canada

    • Knowing your NOC helps you understand which occupations are in demand, which increases your chances of immigration success.
