Hi Members,

I applied PR Under CEC Class and recently landed in Canada Through Rainbow Bridge. I have been granted permission in the landing process and my Passport has been stamped for entering in Canada.

PROBLEM:

Now after landing i went into Service Canada for Getting the SIN Card. as i was on work permit before so i had to change the SIN to receive a permanent SIN Card. But Service Canada said that they cannot find the Document Number present in my Landing papers in their System. So I had to call CIC office to assess the situation. they said that they are looking into their system to find out what happened. But now i am very curios what might have caused this?

My Wife also landed with me (she was dependent) but she got the new SIN without any issues. Its only for me that they couldn't find the document number. Has anyone heard it before? I am currently too tensed, just thinking what might have caused this. I can understand that this is definitely some mistake made by CIC.

I will really appreciate if someone can highlight more on this.

Well, I guess no one but CIC will be able to tell you why or what happened.
Touch base with CIC every now and then and see what they say.

Keep us posted, that sure is an interesting topic.
 
Probably a typo, and they will find the correct number soon.
 
Hopefully a glitch in their system. but unless i get any concrete answer i cannot be sure.

Hopefully now they wont take the passport again for re-doing all the process again, because i am already a landed immigrant now.

Probably you are right. but these processes are so complex it may not be that simple. but let wait for CIC to respond.
 
It's possible they haven't entered the information into the system yet or a typo. Keep checking with them until it is rectified. In the meantime, you can continue to work with the SIN you have now.

Hi AB172234, I also expereinced same issue.

Document number starting with "T" showing invaid records when applied for SIN card. Same issue reported for my entire family. When Called CIC they advised every thing is fine from there end and no issues in PR card process. Anyway on keep calling CIC then have now resubmitted request (they didnt disclouse which type/info) to Canada Services (SIN card office). CIC wanted us to try this again after 72 hours. Also have submitteed amendement form to correct document field in landing papers for safe side (as advised by one of CIC's officer)

Once hear any word on this will update you all

Bye the way did you hear anything on this?
