Dear Moderator,

understand that we can request subject notes on NCB ( non computer based ) through ATIP
can you pls advise from which dept to request CIC or CBSA and what to select under
" what type of record would you like to request " and which file number need to fill in .
there is no mention for FOSS records and there is no application in process

Hello,
Thank you for sharing your situation and question with us.
We have received some information from one of our legal researchers.
If you are a Canadian citizen or a permanent resident of Canada, you can make a request to access information from the CBSA by following the link below:
Access to Information and Privacy
You are requesting information under the "Access to Information Act", and the type of records are "Case Files". You are not required to input a Client ID number. At the bottom of the page there is room to explain details of the information you are requesting.
They suggest that you can write something like "“Travel history, file numbers, time periods, notes or records from border agents (including non-computer based notes)."
I hope this information is helpful. Please let us know if you have further questions and if there is any follow up to your question/situation.
