Welcome! If you are using a representative to help you with a Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) application, you need to complete the Use of Representative form, also known as Form IMM 5476. A representative is someone who conducts business with CIC on your behalf and with your permission. This can be a family member, friend, immigration consultant, lawyer, or other person. The person you appoint may fill out your forms, submit your application, or talk to CIC about your file. It is not mandatory to hire a representative, as the Government of Canada treats all applicants equally, whether they have a representative or not. The application forms have instruction guides to assist you in completing your applications. These guides provide step-by-step instructions and clear information about the documents you must submit. If you hire a representative, your application will not receive special attention or faster processing. It will not affect the final decision made about your application. You can appoint only one representative for each application you submit. You can choose to appoint or cancel a representative at a later date after your application has been submitted. To do so, you must send a completed IMM 5476 form to inform CIC about the change of representatives or your decision not to use one anymore. Let's take a closer look at how to complete the Use of Representative form. Answer each question by typing your information into the white spaces. A checkmark will appear as you click on the es. You can save the form to your computer and follow along with the video as you complete it. Feel free to pause and play the video as you answer each question.
