Hi folks,
My DLI is located in Alberta but I will be staying in Ontario for sometime after arriving in Canada. Can I get my SIN issues from ON? Also, will I have any problems if i get my SIN from a province where I won't be living in near future? Thanks

There's no mention of province on my SIN document so I don't think it matters which province you get it from.

This is the International Students section of the forum. Neither you nor your spouse is an international student.
You already posted the same in the foreign worker section.
