I was hired as a Food Service Supervisor NOC 6212 - I am not NOC 6311. I'll only have 1 year as a supervisor in April 2014. I have not yet applied for PR. Will I be affected by these new laws of November 9th 2013 ???

Note: A maximum of 12,000 applications accepted under the CEC

Between November 9, 2013 and October 31, 2014, CIC will accept a maximum of 12,000 complete applications under the Canadian Experience Class. Within this cap, there will be sub-caps of 200 applications for each National Occupational Classification B applications. You cannot use work experience in the following occupations to qualify for the CEC:

Cooks (NOC 6322)
Food service supervisors (NOC 6311)
Administrative officers (NOC 1221)
Administrative assistants (NOC 1241)
Accounting technicians and bookkeepers (NOC 1311)
Retail sales supervisors (NOC 6211)
 
Definitely yes.
Two problems for you:
1. 12,000 total applications cap.
2. 200 applications for your NOC, since your job belongs to NOC B.

The OP is not eligible. 6212 is from NOC 2006 which is NOC 6311 in NOC 2011
 
It says that You cannot use work experience in the following occupations to qualify for the CEC Food service supervisors (NOC 6311). But my LMO says I am Food service supervisors (NOC 6212) ??
 
i second that PMM is totally right,noc 6212 and 6311 are the same just different numbers.6212 from noc version 2006 and 6311 from noc version 2011.
 
The OP is not eligible. 6212 is from NOC 2006 which is NOC 6311 in NOC 2011??

Please define "OP" & I already have worked 9 months as a supervisor under NOC 6212!

I hope this new law doesn't affect me. I'm ready to APPLY for PR in April

NOC 6212 is the old NOC for Food Service Supervisor. NOC 6311 is the new NOC for food Service supervisor. So there is no difference. You are still affected


Food service supervisors (NOC 6311)
Administrative officers (NOC 1221)
Administrative assistants (NOC 1241)
Accounting technicians and bookkeepers (NOC 1311)
Retail sales supervisors (NOC 6211)

Yes you are affected NOC 6212 and NOC 6311 are the same
NOC 6311 is the updated NOC for food Service Supervisor. There is no difference in old NOC 6212 for Food Service Supervisor you are still affected. We have the same occupation and I applied my PR application in April.
 
Okay Ronan so your safe 'cause you already applied right?
I am not safe no more??
Do I become a unskilled worker now?? I Don't meet the CEC criteria?
What do I do now???
 
Stephen_ca if you are in Alberta discuss with your employer if he can help under the provincial nominee program,if you are in another province then you can explore the options available to you by navigating their websites.
sorry im not aware of all the provinces programs beside Alberta.

You are still skilled worker but like the news said
" it will continue processing to final decision.
So you have to wait when it is gonna be eligible again to CEC or try AINP which is faster or Federal
Skilled worker.
 
I called immigration & just for all the Food Service Supervisors (NOC 6212) to know. We are all safe! Only Food Service Supervisors (NOC 6311) are affected and are no more considered CEC.
(NOC 6212) did not simply turn into (NOC 6311) They are different. They did not disqualify the food service supervisors with an (NOC 6212) LMO!
 
Food Service Supervisors (NOC 6212) and Food Service Supervisors (NOC 6311) both are same, only difference is the National Occupational Classification 2006 and 2011 code .
 
I hope I did not talk to a clueless immigration agent when I called this morning, I'll call back but he did mention NOC 6212 was still eligible and that NOC 6311 wasn't. Why would he say this? He even put me on hold and went to ask his supervisor to make sure he gave me accurate information!
 
I would be very cautious about accepting this advice from the call centre. NOC 6212 (2006) did indeed "simply turn into" NOC 6311 (2011). It doesn't ring true that CIC would leave themselves this kind of loophole in the new rule.

Please see Concordance Tables for NOC 2011 (http://www5.hrsdc.gc.ca/noc/english/noc/2011/Concordance.aspx)

In particular:

6212 Food Service Supervisors 6311 Food service supervisors New code

Other NOCs were merged, redefined, etc, but in this case there is a simple one-to-one match between the old and new codes. It was a simple relabelling that I assume was done for technical reasons, such as the grouping of related occupations.

There will be others whose work permits show an obsolete NOC that does not have an exact match to a new NOC. In this case, I believe they would resolve your job duties to the appropriate NOC in the 2011 list in order to determine eligibility. Perhaps someone else could chime in on this.
