S.I.N. Number
 

Is this pretty quick or what?
Landed last Thursday
Went to HRCC offices for SIN number Friday
Got SIN Number today (Monday)
Job interview Tomorrow
Start work Wednesday (hopefully)
The Job is 99% guaranteed, just the start date that could be next Monday.

Re: S.I.N. Number
 

Did you ask to have the SIN card/number to be processed as an emergency? I asked for mine asap and applied for it back in June - I had a call to collect my card the very next day. My husband applied for his on the same day and his only just came in the mail TODAY!!! So no unless you asked for a rush job then you may have to wait 3 or 4 months for it.

Re: S.I.N. Number
 

Oh ye, forgot to say; when you apply for your SIN you are given a receipt and I think you can use this for when you apply for a job.........anyone confirm this?

*edited to say GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: S.I.N. Number
 

Yes Tia, It was processed as a "priority" On Friday they said it would take a couple of days and to ring the Wednesday if they hadn't contacted me, They phoned me at 9.15 this morning.
The actual card is in the post but i went into the office to get my number today.

God Andy, I am so sorry for my silly response to your post!! I had a bit of a blonde day yesterday and I honestly thought you had written something completely different from what you actually wrote :o .

Re: S.I.N. Number
 

Not to worry Tia, we all have blonde moments...............and i'm grey :D

Re: S.I.N. Number
 

QUICK UPDATEI start work on Monday, not my ideal job but it's a means to an end. I will report back in 3 months time when i am doing what i want to do. I took this job for 3 main reasons:
1, It will help pay the bills and feed the kids.
2, It was quick and easy to find.
3, It will help me save the money needed to do the course for the job i want.
