If you are a representative and want to appoint someone to do business in Canada on your behalf, you must

• complete a Use of a Representative (IMM 5476) form

An immigration representative (an immigration consultant or lawyer) can give you advice and help you with your application for a fee. But they can’t

• electronically sign the application for you
• sign into the portal using your username and password

A representative can fill out forms and communicate with us on your behalf through their own account. They can also

• answer questions about the forms

If you are using the portal to fill out and upload your forms and supporting documents, a representative could help you with the application using screen-sharing technology.

After you read the declaration, you must be the one who types your name. This is the legal requirement for your application to be considered “signed,” according to Canada’s immigration law.
