According to NOC 3111 - It states that even residents in training for that speciality are included in that NOC. That's why I was wondering if residency counts. Very clearly stated in the job description.

Sorry but the NOC seems to state otherwise, below are the excerpts from the above link itself:

Specialists in clinical medicine

• Four to five years of specialty residency training are required.
• Two years of subspecialty training may also be required.

Specialists in surgery

• Five to six years of specialty residency training are required.
• Two years of subspecialty training may also be required.

So you have to fulfill these requirements and then u apply for the work experience.

I think 'resident doctors in training to become specialist physicians' can be included under work experience.... it is mentioned in the lead statement of NOC specialist physician

Did you put residency training as work experience?

I finished my MBBS and MD pharmacology from India. I also have the same doubts. Do we need to get the MCC clearance for immigration? I am also not

Hi!!!
Waiting desperately to know how did it go through? Do they consider speciality training as work experience?

 

[Salz_yahoo]

Could you please contact me .. I am dr. Nivin George ... whats app no. 7012520838

Hello Dr Nivin
Can you please tell me the details of the timeline of your application? I’m a private practising physician and anxious to know if NOC 3112 goes through at all
Thanks!

Guys one thing is very clearly mentioned that IRCC doesn’t consider residency or stipend based work of ours as work experience.
Please note that while adding this in the EE and PR applications they clearly mention to add work experience after date of last degree in relevant field.
Please note that ECA is just the first step and IRCC holds the final say in the education credentialing so they can even increase your marks if need be...
My advise is to keep this work experience as buffer or over and above the minimum one year experience that is mandatory for your NOC. And if you have 3 years in your NOC after degree then nothing to worry about as after that any more years of experience don’t give us any extra points!
All the best!

Hello CanDok
How did your application go? Could you mention your stream and the timeline too.
I’m applying from India NOC 3112.
Very anxious!
Thanks

This statement is not correct.
Ircc never consider the employment requirements mentioned in NoC for assesment .

It is clearly stated in op 6 federal skilled workers booklet pg 41 section 12.3 employment

"
not take into account whether the applicant meets the ―Employment requirements‖ description
set forth in the NOC for the occupation(s) listed (R80(3)) "

[Pato46]

Hello, I am a Specialist Physician, I completed my training in Chile and subsequently made two Fellows at the University of Toronto. For the IRCC the Specialist Physician have a PHD degree? I ask because the only thing that appears is a Doctor of Medicine has a Master's degree.

Would highly suggest you research neurosurgery recertification. Believe it will be another 6 years of residency if there is actually a residency spot available for you to apply for. You also have to do your licensing exams. Would suggest considering immigrating to another country if you want to practice.

Have you researched how difficult i5 will be to be decertified unless you come from a select group of countries. You have not indicated what kind of medicine you practice but the majority of IMGs never practice in Canada.

Hi Nivedita,
Did you Finally show 3 years of residency as a work experience?

Need guidance.
I've done my MBBS and MD Physiology in India.
Doubt no. 1: "ONLY" for express entry purposes, is it okay if I get my education verified with WES? And not MCC? Since after MD Physiology as it is I'm not a typical 'practicing doctor' but more of a teaching professor. I dont intend on practicing in Canada either.

Doubt no. 2: When I tried setting up account on physicianapply.ca , my MD degree didn't show up in the drop down list of my college. Only MBBS did. is it like that for everybody? do we need to get UG verified first and then only our PG will be verified? or is it just that their system is not updated?
