Re: Changing to a PR Social Insurance Number

It will start with a nine. I doubt many people know what this means.

My understanding is the starting number reflects the province you were born, or landed in. Someone who lands in BC will be...

I don't know your circumstances but I would presume that so long as you have not lived in the US before you can use the VWP. Someone else will no doubt be able to confirm that
