If you’re considering a healthcare career in Canada, Pharmacy Assistant is an occupation worth understanding before you make your decision. 🇨🇦💊
Under the current Express Entry category-based selection system, Pharmacy technical assistants and pharmacy assistants (NOC 33103) are included in the Healthcare and Social Services category.
Healthcare continues to be actively selected. On September 4, 2026, IRCC issued 3,500 invitations through a healthcare-category round, with a minimum CRS score of 475.
However, immigration planning requires more than choosing an occupation. For the current healthcare category, candidates need at least 12 months of qualifying work experience within the previous 3 years, along with the other Express Entry eligibility requirements.
So before enrolling in a program, make sure you understand the occupation, NOC, work experience and PR pathway requirements.
