MyCIC
You can use MyCIC to apply for certain services online.
New to MyCIC? First-time user?
- You need a MyCIC account only if you are submitting an online application.
- If you have submitted your application on paper and you wish to check your status, you do not need a MyCIC Account.
If you have never used MyCIC before, you must follow these steps:
Step 1 – Create an Access Key
- The Access Key is the secure login used by the Government of Canada. You need one to use MyCIC.
Step 2 – Log into MyCIC
- Once you have created an Access Key, you need to log into MyCIC. You will have to create a MyCIC account before you can apply online.
Already have a MyCIC? Return user?
The Government of Canada now uses Access Key instead of epass for secure login. If you were previously registered with epass to access MyCIC, you will have to complete a one- time upgrade to Access Key.
To upgrade to Access Key, you will have to enter your current epass user ID and password in the Access Key login page. You will be asked to enter your epass information once more to complete the upgrade. Once completed, you will need to log into MyCIC.
