Legal Documents: What Documents Does McGill Need from You?
Follow the instructions in the first row of this table that apply to you. Send clear, legible copies of documents (not originals).
Note 1: You may alternatively provide your Quebec baptismal certificate if it
was issued
prior to January 1, 1994, and clearly shows where you were born
and that your baptism in Quebec occurred no more than four months after your
date of birth.
Note 2: Your signed Permanent Code Data Form is usually required. If the
names of your parents appear on your birth certificate, or if you have already
provided McGill with your Permanent Code, you do not need to supply this form.
Note 3: Your Canadian Permanent Resident status can be proved by a copy of
your Immigration Canada IMM 5292 document together with your Canadian Permanent
Resident card (copy of both sides required). Alternatively, you may provide
your IMM 1000 document along with your Permanent Resident card (copy of both
sides required).
Note 4: If you are a refugee, you should instead provide your Convention
Refugee status document.
Note 5: Usually McGill needs your birth certificate to prove your place of
birth in Quebec. If you already have a valid Quebec Permanent Code, but McGill
is still charging you Canadian fees, McGill will accept as proof that you
qualify for Quebec residency a copy of your Canadian passport that indicates
your birth place as being within the province of Quebec.
Note 6: You can find links to download and print the Permanent Code Data and
Attestation of Quebec Residency forms at
www.mcgill.ca/legaldocuments/forms.
