Top of PageQ.2: Is there a cost to submit a request under the Access to Information Act request and the Privacy Act?
Each request submitted under the Access to Information Act must be accompanied by a $5 application fee (cheque or money order made payable to the Receiver General of Canada). This application fee entitles you to 5 hours of search and preparation. However, additional charges may be applied during the course of processing your request. These additional charges may be related to search, preparation, computer processing, photocopying, etc. as identified in the Access to Information Regulations. There are no fees associated with submitting a request under the Privacy Act.
