    Info Take note of the following

    SIGNATURE

    A properly filled in consent form will ensure timely processing of your order! Print and hand sign directly on the printed form. Each individual 16 years of age or older must sign on their own and the signature must be consistent with the official signature on the passport.

    MINOR CHILD

    To obtain a minor child's file review the consent form requirements. Guide me Question

    FAMILY

    It is recommended to provide consent for any individual whose information could be contained in the requested records: your spouse, sponsor(s), co-signor, any family member including children 16 years of age or older. By providing consent from all individuals you will have access to more information in response to your request, otherwise, some of the information on file would qualify for exemption.

    IDENTITY

    A piece of photo ID that includes your signature, e.g. passport biographical pages (i.e. photo & signature pages) is also required. Providing a photo ID of all applicants will assist the government institution in processing your request; it can be submitted along with the consent form. Learn more about Identity Verification.

    ADVISORY

    Minimize the risk of delay. Request your file from both IRCC and CBSA. The risk of processing delay at IRCC or CBSA exists. This risk cannot be fully eliminated but it can only be reduced. Receive 2 files: 1 from IRCC and 1 from CBSA both with similar content. Learn more about IRCC vs CBSA.
