Making a Correction Request
A correction request can only be made if it concerns personal information about a physical person. Its subject can include:
- changes to inaccurate, incomplete or ambiguous information, such as an address, postal code or date of birth;
- the destruction of information for which the collection, disclosure or saving is not authorized by law.
Required information
All correction requests must contain enough elements to identify you, including at a minimum:
- your full name;
- your address;
- the number on the last notice of assessment you received;
- a daytime phone number.
Some personal information such as your social insurance number and birth date should never be sent by unsecured email.
