Hi Guys today I got the portal email and I logged in, confirmed I am in Canada, gave my address and provided my photo. What are the next steps? How long does the COPR doc usually take? I have been fully vaccinated and am allowed by my work to work from Pakistan. Is it okay for me to travel after I get that white paper (COPR) and also how long does the actual card take from this time?

Did your MP reply to your email? Do you think emailing your MP escalated the processing time? I emailed mine but haven't heard back from them yet.

I emailed mine and it seemingly didn’t influence anything. Technically they can’t influence anything regarding your application, but it seems that in some cases (anecdotally) an inquiry from an MP triggers some overdue movement. My guess is it deoends on the officer handling your case.

@legalfalcon can you please explain what does mean s21 and s26 on my GCMS notes? Is there anything to worry about? I had always mentioned everything crystal clear on my application.

These sections relate to the Privacy Act:


Information about another individual

26
The head of a government institution may refuse to disclose any personal information requested under subsection 12(1) about an individual other than the individual who made the request, and shall refuse to disclose such information where the disclosure is prohibited under section 8.

International affairs and defence

21
The head of a government institution may refuse to disclose any personal information requested under subsection 12(1) the disclosure of which could reasonably be expected to be injurious to the conduct of international affairs, the defence of Canada or any state allied or associated with Canada, as defined in subsection 15(2) of the Access to Information Act, or the efforts of Canada toward detecting, preventing or suppressing subversive or hostile activities, as defined in subsection 15(2) of the Access to Information Act, including, without restricting the generality of the foregoing, any such information listed in paragraphs 15(1)(a) to (i) of the Access to Information Act.

Not all information is subject to disclosure in the GCMS notes and IRCC / CBSA or any other federal agency can redact certain information under the various provisions of the Access to Information act or the Privacy Act.

There is nothing to be concerned about. All GCMS notes will have certain information redacted under these provisions, specially 21.

As regards s. 26, if you had a dependent in your application over the age of 16, then their consent is required to obtain their information. If there was no consent from them, then their information is redacted.
