As of November 16, 2022, Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) will be transitioning to the new 2021 version of the National Occupation Classification (NOC) system. The changes in effect have major implications for candidates that apply for Canada PR and Work Permits – as well as those with an active profile in the Express Entry system.
Check Your Eligibility for Canada PR Visa
Canada’s National Occupation Classification (NOC) is a nationally-recognized standardized system that assigns a code and job description – to every in-demand occupation in the Canadian labor market. Codes are categorized based on the type of work and job duties. When applying under an Economic Immigration program, candidates must select the NOC that best matches their job.
As of November 16, 2022, IRCC has switched to the new 2021 version of the NOC.
Earlier, candidates were required to have employment experience classified under NOC Skill Types 0, A, or B – referring to the 2016 NOC system. This big shift to the 2021 NOC system will see these skill types replaced by the Training, Education, Experience, and Responsibilities (TEER) categories.
TEER 0
TEER 1
TEER 2
TEER 3
TEER 4

| Skill Type OR Level | TEER Category |
| Skill Type 0 | TEER 0 |
| Skill Level A | TEER 1 |
| Skill Level B | TEER 2 and TEER 3 |
| Skill Level C | TEER 4 |
| Skill Level D | TEER 5 |
The shift will affect eligibility requirements of certain popular immigration programs including:

The new NOC TEER categories will help Canada welcome global talent in in-demand sectors including Healthcare, Construction, and Transportation.
“We are using all of the tools at our disposal to tackle labor shortages, particularly in key sectors like health care, construction, and transportation. These changes will support Canadians in need of these services, and they will support employers by providing them with a more robust workforce whom we can depend on to drive our economy forward into a prosperous future. I’m thrilled to announce expanded pathways to permanent residence in Canada for these in-demand workers,” said Sean Fraser, Minister of Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).
Every 10 years, the National Occupation Classification (NOC) undergoes a major structural change, where the existing occupational groups and the framework of the classification is reviewed. This new 2021 NOC system will be the product of this 10-year circle – and will reflect the changes in Canada’s economy and nature of work.
