If your access request is related to personal information about you, it must be made in writing. If it concerns our administrative documents, it can be made verbally or in writing.

Since only written requests can be reviewed by the Commission d'accès à l'information du Québec, we recommend that you send all requests in writing. To see a model of an access request, go to Request for access to personal information in Public Bodies on the Commission's website.

All access requests made in writing must contain at least three of the following elements, so that we can identify you: 

• your full name;
• your address;
• the identification number shown on your notices of assessment;
• a daytime phone number.

In addition, please specify:

• the title of the requested document or a brief description to help identify it; 
• the period covered by your request.

All access requests must be made to the attention of Mario Jean, who is in charge of access to information.

To learn more about processing times, fees and recourse for access requests, see Differences Between Information and Access Requests.
