Thanks for your responses
@Naturgrl and
@Raptor33. I however believe that my husband qualifies to use NOC 10029. First is because his job roles align completely with it and add some more. Second is that legal firm manager ( which is what he does right now as managing partner) is part of the title listed under the NOC. Third is that the NOC specifically states as follows under its employment requirements:
- A bachelor's degree or college diploma in a field related to the business service provided is usually required.
- Several years of experience in a field related to the business service provided are usually required.
- Licences, certificates or registration may be required for some business services managers. For example, accounting firm managers usually require accounting certification.
- University studies in business administration may be required
A careful observation of the first, second and even third points all point to the fact that he ought to qualify to use this NOC as of now.
1. He has a degree in law which is the field related to the business service that his law firm provides.
2. He has several years of experience in law which is the field related to the business his law firm provides.
3. One cannot become a managing partner if you are not first a lawyer duly called to the bar in my country. This satisfies the requirement for licenses and certifications if needed.
4. The fourth point can be done away with as it is not mandatory.
NOC 4112 cannot and does not apply to my husband's current duties however it does align completely with his previous duties before he became a managing partner.
If he chooses NOC 4112 and states the job duties contained in 10029, he is most likely to be declared ineligible.
That's just what I think. I guess we will have to take our chances. If the worst comes to the worst, we will forgo his previous experience in lawyers and notaries NOC and claim points only for other business services managers. Thankfully he nearing his tenth year as a managing partner.
Thank you very much for all your help and responses, I do appreciate it.
