Frequently asked questions

Is NOC 60030 eligible for Express Entry?+

NOC 60030 is a TEER 0 occupation. IRCC counts work in TEER 0, 1, 2 or 3 occupations as skilled work experience for the Federal Skilled Worker Program and the Canadian Experience Class, as long as all other program requirements are met.

Is NOC 60030 a high-wage occupation?+

No. NOC 60030 isn't on IRCC's Express Entry high-wage occupations list, so it doesn't earn the extra high-wage or job offer CRS points. Canadian work-length points can still apply for TEER 0–3 work.

Which Express Entry category draws include NOC 60030?+

None of IRCC's current category-based selection lists include NOC 60030. Candidates can still be invited in general, program-specific (such as CEC) or PNP rounds.
