How to Contact the Centralized Intake Office?

If you are a Skilled Worker applicant and you have a request for case information you may contact the Client Service Unit of the Central Intake Office using this form. If you applied within the last six weeks, the CSU will not respond to your enquiry.

If you would like to send a mail to the CIO, Nova Scotia, please use the below address.

Centralized Intake Office

Sydney, NS, B1P 0A9
Canada

If you would like to send a courier to the CIO, Nova Scotia, please use the below address.

Sydney, NS, B1P 1J3

If you would like to send an email to the CIO, Nova Scotia, please use the below address.

FSW-Sydney-Search-Enquiry @ cic.gc.ca

However, the emails corresponding to the result of the eligibility reviews come from a different address, which is FSW-Centralized_Intake-Office @ cic.gc.ca. This is a one way address, so can't be used to email them.

You may want to add both these addresses to your email contacts, to ensure they do not end up in spam folders.

If you would like to call the CIO instead, please use the number below.

+ 1-613-944-4000. Be prepared to wait online for 20+ minutes. They say it is quieter on Thursdays and Fridays. Office hours are from 8am to 4pm Eastern Time.

Please note that they do not entertain callers from outside Canada.

How do i contact the Visa Office?

Please use the below link to find out general and contact information for all the Canadian visa offices.

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/offices/missions.asp.

It is advised to use the case specific forms to contact the visa offices with respect to the FSW applications rather than their generic email addresses. For example, please use the below link rather than the generic email address(Delhi-im-enquiry @ international.gc.ca) for the New Delhi Visa Office.

I just contacted the CIO on 1-613-9444000 the representative was really nice

I needed to get the UCI number for my application and my application was received on 27th Aug.

Me: Hello how u doing??
CIO: Fine and you?
Me: Fine. I need to know if i can check the status of application whether it has been received by CIO or not.
CIO: I apologize but I don't have access to FSW record.
Me: Is there any way I can check the status of my application?
CIO: The best way to contact them is through email since they don't have direct lines.
Me: I was informed that email replies would take around 40 days. So i'm looking for fastest to confirm about my application.
CIO: I'm sorry but I can't help you with this.

ME: Thanks for your help. Have a nice day.
CIO: YOU TOO.

Hi to everyone on this forum,

I have couriered my application to the P O Box address, is that OK??

In addition, the DHL AWB mentions the city as Mira Road instead of Sydney, is there any problem with that?

Since my package has not been delivered, I guess I could call DHL customer service and amend both the address to the courier address and the city to Sydney

What do you guys advise me to do

Kind regards and many warm wishes of good luck to everyone here

Dear All,

I have also applied for FSW and sent my application via courier (from Dubai) on 27th Dec, 2014. They confirmed to deliver the package by 30-Dec-14. However, I heard (not sure), there holidays going on in Canada from 25th till 01-Jan-15. Anyone could advice, if he/she got any news regarding this.

Regards,

Waliullah
