Is the a list of acceptable occupation close to NOC?.

[ramzy2277]

Hi all,

I came a cross a strange info from my friend's consultant , I asked her that my job duty only covers 50% of the NOC I applied under which is 7242,industrial electrician, and my job is industrial instrumentation technician which is a different noc 2243 on hrcic, so she said u may stand a chance if visa officer find ur job in the list of acceptable occupations.

I never heard of this list.......so wonder if some one can shed a light on this plz.

For ur reference I will copy paste noc 7242 vs noc 2243 and hope if anyone can see any match.


2243

The title of your professional should not necessarily be exactly as the NOC. What is of utmost IMPORTANCE is that the duties you perform in a particular NOC should reflect those listed under the ministerial instruction. And your reference letter should not be copy and paste from the MI. So your profession maybe 2243 but if the duties you have performed match 7242, you can apply under NOC 7242 and vice versa. Simply put, CIC is looking at duties/experience and not title of of posts/positions.

thanks mandie for ur reply,


i totally agree with u that the job duties are more important than the title....but that wasnt my point of arguement........i was asking about if the visa office didnt find perfect match between my job duties and the duties of the nominated NOC ,i been told the visa officer may look into a list of acceptable occupations that r interrelated with my original job duties......technically, there is an overlap duites between industrial electrician and an industrial instrumentation......i have pasted the duties of each above so u can see the matches lines between the two NOC,

anyhow....my main topic is " Is there such a list of acceptable occupation" near ur nominated NOC the officer may consider......

thanks....
