Find your NOC Code

IRCC's new rules limit spousal open work permits (SOWP) to specific occupations. Find your NOC code and see instantly whether your job still qualifies for SOWP, and whether it is eligible for Express Entry.

Uses the full NOC 2021 dataset from Statistics Canada.

Find your occupation

IRCC matches your occupation on duties, not job title. The more accurately you describe your real tasks, the better the match. Results update as you type.
