*IMPORTANT INFORMATION*

What is a Social Insurance Number (SIN)?

A Social Insurance Number (SIN) is a 9-digit number that the Canadian government requires for taxation purposes. You must have a valid SIN in order to be paid for any work you do in Canada.

What documents do you need to bring to your SIN appointment?

When you apply for a Social Insurance Number (SIN), you must provide a valid original primary document to prove your identity and status in Canada. You may also need to provide a valid supporting document if the name indicated on your primary document is different than the name you are currently using. There is no fee to apply for a SIN. Visit the Service Canada website for a complete list of accepted documents.

If you are an international student, you must bring your original passport and one of the following documents:

- A work permit; or

- A study permit with a notation confirming you "may work" or "may accept employment", such as one of the following remarks:

  • may work 20 hours per week off campus or full time during regular breaks if meeting criteria outlined in paragraph 186(v) of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations; OR
  • may accept employment on or off campus if meeting eligibility criteria, per paragraph R186(f), (v) or (w) and must cease working if no longer meeting these criteria

- A study permit and a "confirmation to work off campus" letter from Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada issued before February 6, 2015.

If your study permit does not include the proper work authorization conditions, you may need to request a correction or apply to change the conditions of your study permit before you can apply for a SIN. Contact an International Student Advisor for more information.
