Thanks for the update can you explain to me how you go about doing this?
If you are in Canada (and have valid temporary status (eg: worker)), then you can request under the Privacy Act. There is no fee for this. See: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/department/atip/requests-personal.asp . Note the 'Note" on the page.
If you are not in Canada, or are, but do not have a valid temporary status, you need to make a request under the Access to Information Act. There is a $5 fee. See: http://www.cic.gc.ca/ENGLISH/department/atip/requests-atip.asp . You need to pay the $5 fee here: http://www.cic.gc.ca/ENGLISH/information/fees/index.asp . Include receipt of this payment as an attachment when you submit the request.
In either case, you should supply the Consent Form listed on the page. The Sponsor fills out and signs Section C. The Principal Applicant fills out and signs Section A. The sponsor can then put the request into CIC as described in the links. You want to request the GCMS case notes (electronic notes generated by Immigration Officers). The Consent Form gets added as an attachment at the end.
In about 30 days, the notes should appear.
