What Is Included in Each Service Level?
GCMS Notes from IRCC
This service provides your immigration processing records from Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada. You receive officer notes and assessments, processing history, document checklists, and decision rationale. It is the most popular option and covers the broadest range of application information.
GCMS Notes from CBSA
This service provides your security screening records from the Canada Border Services Agency. You receive security screening status, travel history verification, and admissibility assessments. This option is particularly useful if you suspect background checks are delaying your application.
Complete Application File from IRCC
This service provides a copy of your IRCC-held application file without officer notes. You receive a summary report, all submitted forms, supporting documents and attachments, internal processing records, and all correspondence with IRCC. This is the right option if you need to review or verify the documents you submitted, particularly if you are preparing a new application and want to ensure consistency with a previous submission.
GCMS Notes from IRCC and CBSA (Bundle)
This bundle combines records from both government departments at a discounted rate compared to ordering each separately. You get everything included in both IRCC and CBSA notes. As a result, this is the best value if you want the most complete picture of your immigration file.
GCMS Notes and Entire Case File
This is the most comprehensive option. In addition to GCMS notes, you receive all forms submitted with your application, the supporting documents you provided, and correspondence between you and IRCC. We recommend this option if you need a complete record for legal purposes or RCIC consultation.
Are GCMS Notes Free?
No, GCMS notes are not free. Accessing your immigration records requires submitting a formal request under the Access to Information Act or Privacy Act. While you can submit this request yourself through the Government of Canada’s ATIP portal (which may involve a small government fee), using a service like GCMS Notes Request saves you significant time and effort. Your service fee covers the complete process: form preparation, submission, monitoring, and delivery.
For more on how the ATIP process works, see our guide on ATIP and GCMS notes.
What Do GCMS Notes Fees Cover?
Your fee covers the full end-to-end service: pre-printed consent form generation, same-day submission of your request to the government, request monitoring and status updates through your account, same-day delivery of your notes when the government releases them, and secure delivery as a downloadable PDF in your account. We do not charge any hidden fees. The amount you see on the website is exactly what you pay.
How Do GCMS Notes Request Fees Compare?
GCMS Notes Request offers competitive pricing for this service in Canada. Although fees vary between providers, the key differentiators to consider are same-day submission, same-day delivery upon release, a secure account with tracking, multiple payment methods (credit card, debit, Google Pay, Apple Pay, PayPal), past client reviews and responsive customer support.
