Schedule of Fees for FOIPOP Applications

Purpose

All FOIPOP applications must be accompanied by a cheque/money order for $5.00 in favour of St. Francis Xavier University. No fee is charged when the applicant makes request for personal information or for the correction/amendment of personal information.

The FOIPOP Act makes provisions for the necessary time extensions and expansion of resources to complete a FOIPOP application. The applicant will be informed in writing if a time extension and fee estimate is necessary. No further action will be taken on the application if the applicant does not agree to the time extension or fee estimate. As well, a third party notification may also require more staff time, effort, and time. All additional fees must be prepaid before completion of the application.
