Our office would be pleased to assist you wherever we can.
The office can help you with federal immigration questions such as:
- how to find out the status of an immigration file;
- how to submit a document to the IRCC;
- how to obtain clarification about a communication from the IRCC; and
- general questions.
In order for the office to assist you, please see the sections below:
1. Who is your MP?
Confirm that you live in the riding of Mount Royal by typing your postal code in the box at the top right corner of the webpage located at this link:

2. Proof of address
Please send us a photocopy of a piece of ID, a bill or an official document with your residential address.
3. Welcome Sheet

The constituent fills out the Welcome Sheet, which helps the office to track the file. The constituent should include their information and details about their file.
4. IRCC Consent Form
Fill in boxes 1, 2, 3, 4 and 7 and sign the IRCC Consent Form.
You need to be 18 years or older to sign the consent form; otherwise, you need an adult to consent on your behalf.
5. Helping an Adult (Please read both points, there are two separate required forms)
- To find out about someone else’s immigration file, that person (the "Applicant," who must be an adult) must fill out and sign the IRCC Consent Form (boxes 1, 2, 3, 4 and 7).
-
If you are assisting the applicant, then both of you must fill in and sign the Consent to Disclose Personal Information Form. In this form, the applicant gives consent and you are the authorized representative. This form gives the office permission to discuss the applicant's file with you. MPs/MP Offices cannot act as authorized representatives for clients, but can only be designated individuals.
6. Helping your Child
- If you are enquiring on behalf of your minor child, you must fill in and sign the IRCC Consent Form on behalf of your child. In this form, you must indicate the minor's information in boxes 1, 2, 3 and 4. In box 7 you sign off and indicate that you are the parent, e.g., I am the mother, I am the father.
- If you have several minor children, each child must have their own IRCC Consent Form.
- The signature of only one of the two parents, the person making the inquiry with this office, is required
- If you have mandated a lawyer to represent your child, you and the lawyer must sign the Consent To Disclose Information Form. In this form, a parent gives consent and the lawyer is the authorized representative. This form gives the office permission to discuss the applicant's file with the lawyer. As with the IRCC Consent Form, a co-parent may opt to submit their own Consent to Disclose Personal Information Form.
