Online services
NOTE: Due to regular maintenance, CIC online services will not be available on Sunday, February 13, 2011, from 8:00 a.m. EST to 12:00 p.m. EST.
MyCIC may sometimes be unavailable due to regular system maintenance or unexpected issues. If you have problems connecting, you should try again in a few hours. If you cannot access MyCIC for an extended period, and your status is about to expire, you may also apply using a paper application.
(Note - You can only apply for an Off-Campus Work Permit by paper if you have received and printed your Electronic Verification Number from your school.)
