No worries about paperwork

Applying for Canada immigration involves a lot of paperwork, that includes filing,submitting forms and document. An error in documentation may lead to your application being rejected. Then you will have to get the whole process done again. Sometimes, you may even be barred from submitting the application again for providing wrong information. When you have an RCIC licensed immigration consultant to help you, chances for anything like that to happen are very rare.

They make the immigration process simpler for you

As RCICs will be having much experience in processing applications for visa, they would be efficient in handling the process effectively. It reduces stress, chances for errors and saves a lot of time unless when you do it alone.

Privacy assured

In order to submit a visa application, you will have to divulge a lot of personal information to the consultant, including your marital status, bank account details, details about your family members and your address. If the consultant is not trustworthy, there is a chance that these information are misused. An RCIC status guarantees that the consultant is authentic and recognized by the authorities.

Are you thinking about migrating to Canada? Then it is important to find your NOC code to identify the best immigration pathway for you. The National Occupational Classification or NOC is a unique Canadian system of classifying and describing occupations based on skills and locations. Most of the economic immigration programs including the Express Entry use National Occupational Classification (NOC) system to assess work experience of the candidates.  The NOC also helps to understand the main duties and educational requirements for each occupation and other important information.

What is NOC code?

NOC code is a unique four-digit code assigned to each occupation, which makes it easier to identify its skill level, skill type, type of the industry and education requirements. The code depicts job title, lead statement and job description. If you are an aspiring immigrant, you must remember that your current job has not much to do with determining your NOC code. What is relevant is your work experience, which should match the lead statement of that particular NOC code. It should also match with the duties and responsibilities mentioned in the job description.

Skill type in the NOC code

The first digit of the NOC code indicates the skill type. Under the National Occupations Classification, occupations have been classified into 10 different skill types:

Skill level in NOC code

The second digit in the NOC code depicts the skill level of the occupation. The job groups have further been classified into five categories based on the skill level required for various jobs.

Skill Level type 0

Management jobs that revolve around managerial roles come under this category. The job titles under this category include hotel managers, mine managers, human resource managers, resort managers etc. The Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has classified the jobs under this category as high skilled occupations.

Skill Level Type A

Professional jobs such as engineering, medicine, finance etc. come under this category. It is the Skill Level type for doctors, engineers, nurses, dentists, marketing specialists etc. To apply for a job under this category, you need a professional degree. In the NOC code, skill level A is defined as ‘0’ or ‘1’. These jobs are also classified as high skilled occupations by the IRCC.

Skill Level Type B

The supervisory level jobs in all industries are classified under Skill Level Type B. The jobs that require technical skills, such as electricians, mechanics, bakers etc. also come under this category. Diploma is the minimum education qualification for this category. IRCC classif ies these jobs as highly skilled occupations and in the NOC code, skill level B is defined as ‘2’ or ‘3’.

Skill Level Type C

Intermediate level jobs including receptionists, truck drivers, travel guides, dispatchers etc. come under this Skill level type. The minimum education qualification for these jobs is high school education. These are classified by the IRCC as low skilled occupation.

Skill Level Type D

Labour jobs such as janitors, dry cleaners, kitchen helpers etc. come under this category. These are also classified by the IRCC as low skilled occupation.

Minor Groups and Unit Groups

The third digit in the NOC code further divides major groups into 140 occupational categories called Minor Groups. The fourth digit stands for the Unit Group. There are 500 Unit Groups that include numerous job titles.

Decoding the NOC code

Each NOC code indicates the skill type, skill level and specialised services of the occupation.

For example,

The NOC code for Registered Nurses is 3012. The digit 3 in the code indicates the skill type, which is, health services. The second digit

stands for the skill level. ‘0’ stands for Skill Level Type A, which is a professional job that requires a college or relevant degree. Number 12 indicates the specialised services.
