You don't need to worry about the credit thing, it's all connected somehow by CRA.

PR cards are taking 96 days to process.

As far as I know, CRA does not provide your SIN number, old or new to credit bureaus.

Banks and other creditors might so if you have it updated with the bank they might provide that to CBs (Equifax and/or TransUnion).

You may also contact credit bureaus directly and inform them of any changes to your file including SIN number. You will need to include photocopies (or if via email scanned copies) of two valid government issue photo IDs and your new + old SIN numbers with a cover letter requesting the change.
