http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/department/atip/requests-personal.asp (doing it by yourself if eligible)
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/department/atip/requests-atip.asp (if you are not eligible to do it yourself and need to appoint a representative)

To be eligible to make this request, you must be a Canadian citizen, a permanent resident of Canada or an individual currently present in Canada.

So if you are not a Canadian citizen or PR, and you are outside Canada, you will need to appoint someone who is Canada to request it for you under the Access to Information Act.
If you are a temporary resident and are physically in Canada, you are eligible to do it yourself under the Privacy Act.

Thanks GinnyPi. This answers my question.
 
Hi Guys,

I was wondering when is a good time to apply for GCMS notes? I filed in November so I do realize that it's a little early in the process but I thinking of applying for them in April. Any suggestions?
 
The best time to apply for GCMS is 3-4 months after you have received AOR letter.

I submitted mine a while ago and I have not received anything yet.
 
Thanks Baraa,

I'll probably wait till end of April then.
 
Does anyone knows why in the GCMS notes COPR status is cancelled? although no reason is mentioned.
 
I have the same, I think its because dependant or PA is outland and cant travel because of travel restrictions.
 
Also my spouse is the secondary applicant. GCMS notes did not show spouse details and mentioned that the information is with held as per the 19(1) act. Can some one please explain why the spouse details are not shared in the gcms notes. Is it because the consent was not provided?
 
I requested GCMS last June 11 and I only received an email acknowledgment. Is there any other email that I should get before they send me the GCMS?

@bellbazaurs

If your application has bene placed on hold due to travel restrictions or if any of the checks have expired, then the application would be reopened, and for that the COPR is issued will be cancelled.
 
Also my spouse is the secondary applicant. GCMS notes did not show spouse details and mentioned that the information is with held as per the 19(1) act. Can some one please explain why the spouse details are not shared in the gcms notes. Is it because the consent was not provided?

Can someone please reply on this?
