Why is Consent required?
A Consent form is required pursuant to the Canadian Privacy Act, which states that personal information shall not, without the consent of the individual to whom it relates, be disclosed by Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC).
If signed and dated consent from all adult individuals is not provided, then it is possible that your request will be delayed while CIC will either seek consent or alternatively sever information regarding individuals for whom CIC does not have consent.
Who needs to submit the Consent form
A consent form is required of each adult individual (over 18 years of age) whose name is mentioned in the immigration application. For example, as a principal applicant you should enclose a copy from your self and if applicable a copy from your spouse or adult dependants.
If the consent form for all individuals is not provided then CIC will sever information related to the missing consent form.
Being sponsored to Canada?
If you or your family have been sponsored to come to Canada then the consent of the sponsor as well as the principal applicant is required. In addition, consent from other family members being sponsored such as a spouse or dependent children over the age of 18 is also required.
Matching the Consent with the File number
The principal applicants file number will be used as reference for all the consent forms.
Date on the Consent form
Always submit a recent Consent form even if it's a repeat order. The Consent form should be dated within 30 days of placing the order.
