Req # 1A-2022-97851
In recent exchanges with IRCC Statistical Reporting Group, Chief Data Officer Branch, I was surprised some data would not be available in formats I was hoping for. Nevertheless, I believe some of that data is being stored in other formats. I would please like a copy of all documents describing the contents of certain data banks, such as documents describing fields, data types, accepted values, etc., diagrams representing such data banks, or metadata describing such data banks. We're looking for descriptions of IRCC data banks held by EDW, Statistical Reporting Group, and/or Chief Data Officer teams. We're looking for descriptions of the data banks holding data on the following topics , all relative to temporary residence applications : * Cases challenged in Federal Court * Client satisfaction or dissatisfaction * Volumes of calls or emails from immigration clients * Workload per officer and/or number of officers per office * CAQ approval letter formats ( MIFI approval letters 705, 733, 300 and 310 see : https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/publications-manuals/operational-bulletins-manuals/temporary-residents/study-permits/students-destined-quebec.html) To be clear, we are not interested in this request for the actual data in the databases / databanks, only documents describing them.Organization: Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada

Req # 1A-2022-93177
On July 11, 2022, I received ATIP A-2022-19717 (see here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/gbfy6y5gmqe5h1y/1A-2022-19717%20Response%20Package.pdf?dl=0), relating to training materials made available to ATI employees at IRCC. The records I received consisted almost entirely of a walkthrough of how to use APCM, without any other accompanying PowerPoints, training documents, etc. I am now seeking two additional things based on this request: 1) PowerPoint presentations and other documents used to train ATI staff within IRCC. 2) Page 168 of the release includes a cheat sheet of exemption codes, and notes that if someone has questions about exemptions they should speak to their ATIP professional. This suggests to me that the package disclosed to me is one given to casual employees (see page 143), not full-time ATIP professional staff members who review branch claims for exemptions. As such, I'd like any training materials on exemption application and review by ATIP professionals. Please feel free to contact me for clarification.Organization: Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada
