16 New occupations will be eligible for Express Entry - Aptech Visa

16 new jobs will be eligible for Express Entry as a result of Canada's revamp of the National Occupational Classification (NOC) system.

According to a government memorandum obtained by immigration.ca on February 21, 2022, the selection procedure will comprise truck and bus drivers, orderlies, teaching assistants, and dental assistants. The total rundown can be found underneath.

The memorandum affirms that Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) will complete the transition from NOC 2016 to NOC 2021 in November 2022.

The system will then transition from its existing skill level-based classification to a new TEER classification, which stands for Training, Education, Experience, and Responsibilities.

The current Skill Type 0 and Skill Levels A to D, on the other hand, do not properly correspond to TEER levels 0 to 5.

The following are some rough equivalents:

NOC 2016

NOC 2021

Skill Type 0

TEER 0

Skill Level A

TEER 1

Skill Level B

TEER 2

 TEER 3

Skill Level C

TEER 4

Skill Level D

TEER5

From Skill Level B and up, occupations qualify for Express Entry under NOC 2016. TEER 3 and higher will be eligible under NOC 2021.

As a result, the following jobs will be added

·         Sheriffs and bailiffs

·         Correctional service officers

·         By-law enforcement and other regulatory officers

·         Payroll administrators

·         Payroll administrators

·         Elementary and secondary school teacher assistants

·         Nurse aides, orderlies, and patient service associates

·         Pharmacy technical assistants and pharmacy assistants

·         Residential and commercial installers and servicers

·         Other repairers and servicers

·         Transport truck drivers

·         Bus drivers, subway operators, and other transit operators

·         Heavy equipment operators

·         Aircraft assemblers and aircraft assembly inspectors

·         Estheticians, electrologists and related occupations

Furthermore, under NOC 2021, three other professions that were qualified for Express Entry under NOC 2016 will no longer be eligible. These are the occupations:

•        Various performers

•        Entertainment, game, and fitness trainer pioneers and teachers

•        Tailors, dressmakers, furriers, and milliners

 Atlantic Immigration Program

The eligible vocations under the Atlantic Immigration Program (AIP) will be affected as part of the transition from NOC 2016 to NOC 2021.

The AIP is an employer-led initiative that aims to attract new skilled immigrants to Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, and Newfoundland and Labrador.

Within NOC 2016, it is currently open to jobs with a Skill Level C or higher. It will be open to vocations with a TEER of 4 or above under NOC 2021.

As a result, the following jobs will no longer be eligible

•        Other personal service support occupations

•        Longshoremen

•        Material handlers

•        Taxi and limousine drivers and chauffeurs

•        Delivery service drivers and door-to-door distributors

•        Boat and cable ferry operators and related vocations

•        Waiters and waitresses

•        Textile processing and cutting workers

Further Express Entry Changes Coming

In modifications to the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act suggested by IRCC, significant improvements to Canada Express Entry that will allow occupation-based invitations have been highlighted.

The proposed modifications, which are part of Bill C-19, expand on some of the details initially published by immigration.ca in November 2021, giving the immigration minister more freedom in inviting people from the Express Entry pool.

It empowers the minister to designate a specific economic goal and invite applicants who can help achieve that goal based on work experience, education, or language abilities.

This would enable specific National Occupational Classification (NOC) codes to be targeted in draws.

IRCC's Director General, Strategic Policy and Planning, Philip Somogyvari, recently appeared before the Standing Committee on Citizenship and Immigration to answer concerns about the proposed changes.

"The changes so made will enhance Express Entry's progressing versatility and facilitate Canada's financial recoup and expected improvement by entitling the department to all the more promptly pick candidates who match an assortment of monetary requests and needs," Somogyvari told the Committee.

"All the more explicitly, the corrections permit the government of Citizenship and Immigration to welcome foreigners to apply for Canada Permanent Residence through Express Entry on another premise: qualification to be individuals from a classification that will assist the economy with accomplishing a financial objective."

Somogyvari highlighted the example of employing immigration to help the technological sector in Canada develop.

"An Express Entry classification will be created in light of variables like professional experience, area of work, as well as the holding of a connected educational confirmation," he told the Committee.

"The highest level candidates in that field could from there on getting solicitations."

The specific category would be determined by ministerial orders, similar to how regular draws are currently conducted through Express Entry.

Current legislation, on the other hand, only allow for draws to be held for certain Canadian immigration categories, such as Federal Skilled Work, Federal Skilled Trades, the Canadian Experience Class, and the Provincial Nominee Program.

The minister will be forced to identify the economic purpose being addressed each time a new category is created, according to Somogyvari. The 'Annual Report to Parliament on Immigration' should include the usage of the new authorities.
