What is the NOC category for this position

[motg12]

Pls help me know where Branch manager for a payday loan company falls? Also what is the acceptable salary range in order to be considered valid for the CEC application.

Thanks

Interesting question - job adds seem to indicate either 0122 or 0621 -

Either one is at the managerial level, so it should qualify. But I still suggest that you check it with HRSDC.

There is no "salary requirement" for CEC.

although CEC does not have a written salary requirement, I've seen people got rejected because the visa officer thought their salary was not consistent with the job title they claimed to hold(especially if one claimes to be a XXX manager but only gets paid $11-12/hr)

You can check your salary with www.workingincanada.gc.ca enter your job title and see what the lowest rate for your area is. If you are lower than the lower bound then it is not impossible that the officer will get suspicious

They are not rejected because of salary, they are rejected because the VO does not believe the applicant is performing a skilled occupation.

For that to happen, there has to be multiple pieces of evidence - job duties do not match a skilled NOC, and/or do match an unskilled NOC - salary is just one little clue in the bigger picture, and it will NEVER be the ONLY reason that an application is rejected. However, many applicants do try to "fudge" the NOC (make it look like a skilled NOC when it really is an unskilled NOC), and the VOs know this - so they may look at salary if they already suspect this.

Many people on this discussion board are focusing on the wrong thing... It's all about whether the evidence you provide supports your claim that you have the required experience in a SKILLED occupation. And that evidence primarily comes from the Letter of Employment.
