Access to Information and Privacy at CIC
Access to Information and Personal Information Request Form (IMM 5563)
If you decide to use Citizenship and Immigration Canada’s Access to Information and Personal Information Request form, please do not accompany it with a letter or the Treasury Board form. Only use this form, the necessary consents and the fee (if applicable) when making a request. Following these recommendations will save all parties time and paper.
Basic items needed to start processing a request:
Formal request
Consent(s)
Fee ($5.00, only for an Access to information request) ― cheque or money order made payable to the Receiver General for Canada
Basic information needed to start processing a request:
Name
Date of birth
File location
File number
Tips:
The right column on CIC’s Access to Information and Personal Information Request form indicates what information we require for the corresponding information (i.e. if you check off the CAIPS notes box on the right, it indicates we require the embassy location and visa file number). Not providing the required information will result in an incomplete request letter and delay the processing of your request. (CAIPS notes are only for immigration files abroad, FOSS notes are only for immigration files that are in Canada and GCMS is for citizenship files only.)
We suggest that you request CAIPS or FOSS notes only. These notes are printed in our office, therefore processing is quicker. The physical file usually only contains the documents that were provided by your client. Having to call for a physical file increases the processing time.
If you wish to obtain all files in Canada, check off the Canada file box, indicate the client ID and write “all locations”. You will automatically receive FOSS notes with any request for Canadian files.
If you wish to obtain a VISA file (physical file including CAIPS), indicate the file number (starts with a “B”, “V”, “E” or an “S” most of the time) and the location of the embassy. For files abroad, we rely on a computer system that is provided to us by Foreign Affairs Canada. This system does not enable us to locate all files in all embassies at once by a search under your client’s name or client ID. We need each location as we can only search one embassy at a time. CAIPS notes are always provided with a VISA file request.
If the file number you wish to access is unknown, please indicate it. We will then attempt to search for it. If you wish to continue using either the Treasury Board request form or a letter, please be clear, concise and provide all information that would be required if you used CIC’s Access to information and Personal Information Request form.
NB.: Requests under the Access to Information or Privacy Acts can only be made by Canadian Citizens, Permanent Residents, or a person present in Canada, therefore if your client is not one of the above, your request must be made under the Access to Information Act. Also, your first request must include proof (i.e. copy of Canadian passport) that the requester (yourself) is one of the above if you are making the request from outside Canada.
这里面说到的 Consent，就是 A 授权 B 替 A 查询有关 A 的移民信息，A 可以写信授权，或者填写另外一个表格
