Want to add your project to your GCOS account?

Even if you initially applied without using GCOS, you can still add your project to your new GCOS account once you have an agreement.

Contact us

Contact your Service Canada representative for questions about your agreement. You can find their contact information at the bottom of your approval email. Make sure to include the name of your organization and your project number in your message.

Check your emails often

If you are a primary contact person, remember to monitor your emails regularly as we will be sending you information regarding CSJ (such as mandatory reporting documents) during and after the agreement.

Check your spam and junk folders

If you are unsure whether we have contacted you, please check your junk mail and spam folders for messages from SV-SF-CSOS / no-reply-aucune-reponse@esdc-edsc.gc.ca, as well as any emails from your Service Canada representative.
