Hi
i saw that you can request note from CSIS online same as GCMS howevere why some posts say you can only do that by Mail or Fax !!!
is this old information ? using online tool how did they replied you ? and how long it took them to answer you
Hello, I used both options. I mailed them a letter asking for more information and also filled in the online request.
The results were:
Mailed request:
Letter mailed to my provided mailing address stating on what date they received my application and on what date they finished processing.
Online request:
Package to my provided mailing address containing a CD. The CD just had one document in it. It was a two page "classified" screening request information form with CSIS and CBSA internal tracking numbers, priority information and application received and completed dates. There was a section of "Recommendation/Advice" with sub fields of "Recommendation", "Valid to", "Completed by" etc etc. Which may have been very valuable but it was all redacted. :/
Oh also, the confidential document had a field which said "CTC required" and next to it said "N" which I can infer stands for No. I did a little bit of digging online and found that CTC stands for counter-terrorism check. So that's a plus
Online request took less than a month for them to respond and for me to receive the package. Mailed request, I received response in about 6 weeks.
