GCMS Notes

[amir_e]

How can I request GCMS notes to see why my citizenship application is delayed?
I see that there are third party sites to request this info. Why should I use a third party and what is the difference between them when I can request it from the government website? Unless there is something I am not understanding

thank you!When I fill the form should I select ‘privacy act’ or ‘access to information act’?

When did you submit the request? I read it could take 30 to 40 days

I always order the notes using Privacy Act because there is no cost for it.
Under access to information act they charge you $5.

So is there a difference between the two for them to charge for one and not the other?

I dont think so it would have any major differences
but if you have some time you can check the FAQ link: https://www.priv.gc.ca/en/about-the-opc/opc-access-to-information-and-privacy/faqs/ for more info
