Manitoba published a notice regarding the use of NOC 2021
On November 14, 2022, the Government of Manitoba published a notice regarding the Expression of Interest draws using the NOC 2021. The Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program will begin using the 2021 version of the National Occupational Classification (NOC) for all applications received after November 16, 2022.
The MPNP will hold an Expression of Interest draw for profiles using NOC 2021 on November 17, 2022. Applicants wishing to be considered in any draw held on that date must submit their Expression of Interest profile by 11:59 PM the day before, on November 16, 2022. After November 16, 2022, the MPNP will still accept new Expression of Interest profiles and continue to have regular draws based on the MPNP’s needs.
The MPNP plans to start an Expression of Interest draw for Skilled Workers Overseas on December 31, 2022. This draw will consider all Expression of Interest profiles with a connection to Manitoba through one or more Manitoba supporters or who have previous experience in the province.
Please be aware that if your MPNP application was submitted before November 16, 2022, the MPNP nomination and subsequent permanent residence application will be assessed according to NOC 2016. You cannot switch your application to NOC 2021.
What is NOC 2021?
On November 16, 2022, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) will update the National Occupation Classification (NOC) 2021, to include the Training, Education, Experience, and Responsibilities (TEER) system.
The NOC is revised every ten years to keep up with the changing Canadian labor market. This newest revision provides a new framework for classifying occupations by Employment and Social Development Canada (ESDC) and Statistics Canada.
The only impact this change will have, is administrative, as there will be no changes to advertising or delivery of the immigration programs.
Expression of Interest (EOI)
The Expression of Interest is your first step to immigration to Manitoba through the Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program. An Expression of Interest EOI is not an application, but an online profile with a pool of all eligible candidates who can submit a full application. Candidates complete a series of questions, and their profile gets ranked based on the response provided.
