Does CIC keep records?

[jaffa83]

What do you mean by details? Do you mean address or job at the time?

They keep track of everything once an UCI for you is logged with them. This (every piece you submitted to CIC) information is kept with them even for 50 years and only way to get this to wipe-out is to get the Citizenship. This is confirmed by the CBSA/CBO officers once I am crossing the border from USA in a car.

How about previous application to CIC without foreign work experience added to the application and now one is adding the foreign work experience to his/her express entry profile.

If you wish to know what is in your file you can request your Physical File in same way you would order your GCMS. PF will show you scans of every page in your file. Some parts may be redacted for things that relate to other people or security issues, for example. Do a google search for the most up to date guidelines on ordering.

Sounds great. Got the link. Thank you Pippin

You are welcome. GCMS notes take approx one month; PF takes two months.

I do not have a file number generated. All I have is the UCI, which was generated when I was in Canada as a student.
Since my application for FSW 2014 was returned without even acceptance of payment,
no file number has been generated.

How can I request for my information? Actually, will CIC have any records of mine?

Hi, how can I check one of applications been refused back in 2002 I think. I have my case number with me and trying my luck with online tracking system CIC introduced but of no use.


Kindly advise.

likely archived and not available to general public online query. Probably need specific request to CIC.

yes, they do. They keep track of returned apps also.

Hi,
does CIC keep your records if your earlier application was returned due to CAP full?

I had applied under 1123, but my application was returned, DD was not charged.
I'm planning to apply for Express Entry but under a different NOC.

Any help is appreciated in advance

I don't understand why are you worrying. The fact you applied with different NOC before should not affect your application in any way. Choosing different NOC for second application is not misrepresentation if you think that NOC better describes your duties. I know few people who were refused for NOC/duties mismatch, applied with different NOC and were approved.

Thanks for your help. I am gonna shoot email to CIC. Ohh and one more thing. Are they in loop with Australian Immigration department? A friend of mine applied as a hair dresser for Australian PR but his application returned. Now he wants to apply as a Chef for Canada. Should he mention his previous application for Austrlaian PR?

There is a statutory question: had this person has ever denied a visa of any other country.

You need to disclose all the visa/ immigration rejections. They have tie up with many other countries, CIC will find out easily if someone is lying. You will banned for 5 years for misrepresenting facts.

Hi,

so what happened with your application ?Did it create any issues as you said you didn't mention about a course in EE but you did when you applied for student visa?
