If you wanna get basic updates for ur file for FREE and don't wish to have that consent form IMM 5476 filled then follow the above instructions then choose "Privacy Act" ... and follow instructions on screen. This way you won't have to worry about having a valid credit card nor worry how to fill in the form IMM 5476 if you wanna submit an ATIP request straightaway ...

The basic updates includes incoming/outgoing correspondance, notes made by officers, and basic sponsor info. ...

On Page 3, just make sure you upload a copy of your PR Card, Canadian Passport, or other Identifying credentials with government photo

Oh I thought consent from spouse is a must to order GCMS notes...........Are you sure about this?

Page 3:

If you choose to order under "Access to Information" then you need to upload a signed consent form that must have ur signature and ur spouse's signature ... this means ur spouse is legally allowing u to access his/her portion of info that is classified as 'Protected B or confidential' .... In Pakistan it's automatically understood wife/husband have access to one another legal records but here every person is legally protected by privacy. Fill in this consent form and attach and upload IMM 5476 http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/pdf/kits/forms/imm5476e.pdf Use of a rep form ...


Hope this helps a bit .......
Could you please tell me
Page 3 consent sign is it must to attach n upload form consent sign?

Hi fizz1234,
In your section (How to order GCMS notes) it is said to select "sponsorship file"; while other members saying to select Immigration: Permanent Residency, wondering which one is correct. And if one is select Sponsorship file, will it contain both applicant's and sponsor's details or only sponsor's ? please reply...
Thanks
I have been ordering notes quite frequently with this format and received information about sponsor and applicant.

waiting110 said:
sorry to jump in but I did accidentally asked for sponsorship file information once .. and it only contained information about the sponsor .. yes it did have notes exactly the same as the principal applicant but it didn't give me any info about criminality, security and eligibility nor medical .. it never gave any info if they received my additional docs in london and all that crucial stuff. so its my personal experience .. order immigration file notes
That's interesting I just got my notes today and it contains info about the additional information I sent this year [twice] and status of criminality,security etc.
In your notes does it mention anything other than whether security has started or not ? In addition to the single line usually security not started.

Yes it is required, you cannot proceed with ordering if you don't attach it.

Reason: You [sponsor] are requesting information on behalf of another individual [applicant] and you need their consent

That is the time period sponsor is responsible for supporting the applicant once the sponsorship is approved. Nothing to do with how long the process will take.

Yes the sponsor notes do give me information that they uploaded the docs London asked in May 2014 but the whole file history section and all the sections described above were not in there .. i ordered my sponsor and immigration notes at the same time in july .. and when I got them, the sponsor notes were about 42 pages and immigration notes were around 66 pages - big difference!

in June i got sponsor notes (applied by mistake) so I couldn't even compared my recent immigration notes to the sponsor notes .. and couldn't figure out any major updates .
Anyways my security is a blank line .. but i know its done because when I got notes before in around march or april it said in progress i believe .. and before that it has always been not started ..

they always hide the status of security and criminality anyways

So applied for my wife sponsorship from Canada on June 18th 2014, and receive my first letter of getting passed the first step on August 12th 2014, Now the letter says my application is forwarded to the visa office which is London UK, and when I see processing times of UK it says 11 months, so if all goes well INSHA ALLAH my processing time would be around 11 months.? not that of Pakistan right (32)..??

Also does any one of you applied for the wife's visit Visa, and what are the chances of getting it approved.??
Hi,
As your file went straight to LVO, and if its simple straight forward case, you should expect the case finalization betwwen 11-15 months INSHA ALLAH.

Getting CDN visit visa is harder than getting CDN immigration.
Approval chances are only 10%.
Good luck.
