    Can a CIC Agent call and ask for last 3 digits of SIN?

    Service center confirmed it was strange and it could be fraud. However, if you'd like to launch a investigation to find out what led to this security breach (they had personal information from our file), they say you need to go through a lawyer, which is quite infuriating... There might have...

    Can a CIC Agent call and ask for last 3 digits of SIN?

    Thank you so much to @zardoz who really helped me figure out this was most certainly a scam. From now on, if we receive a call from a so-called agent, we will request a name and ID number and check with the service center first before answering anything. We were lucky that we did not fall for it...

    Can CIC Agent call and ask for 3 last digit of SIN

    You are absolutely right. I just looked at the forms we submitted, an no where did we provide the sin number... This is very worrying. Thank you so much.

    Can CIC Agent call and ask for 3 last digit of SIN

    Regarding that last comment, they do call. I knew people working for IRCC and they would sometimes call directly the person who's app they were working on to ask questions, so it does happen although I do believe they usually go through the GC account route. Which is also more logical as it...

    Same here... Line 150, right? So Q1 total: 7140, Q2 total: 8180, Q3 total (up to August): 5480, for a 2019 total so far of 20800... But are the quotas for the CSQ? If so, we already received ours and shouldn't be affected by this. However, I was advised by the service center that decision was...

    Can CIC Agent call and ask for 3 last digit of SIN

    Thanks. It's still unclear tbh. They did have info on our file that no one could've known unless they had our application, so that's what's weird... They said we could provide our answers to the service center, which I called and they had no record of a call being made to us... THey said it...

    Can a CIC Agent call and ask for last 3 digits of SIN?

    The call was from an unknown number, so impossible to call back. They did say we could call the call center and give them our answers to the questions, I managed to talk to someone yesterday at the call center and they said there was no call on file. But I was so rattled I forgot to ask about...

    Can CIC Agent call and ask for 3 last digit of SIN

    Hi, we received a call from a CIC Agent who had questions for us, and they asked we provide the last 3 digits of SIN to identify us... We refused to provide it as we had no way to confirm this was really a CIC agent (they didn,t provide ID# or name) and it seemed strange. Whenever we called the...

    Common-law Sponsorship after barely 1 year

    My common-law spouse and I only had the lease in common. Utilities were included, so no bills for that. However, our personal phone bills showed the same address. My spouse used school certificate showing the address, I used tax slips showing my address, we also got an affidavit letter from our...

    I spoke with IRCC yesterday and asked them about the Quebec cap. They told me that they were not impacted by cap that provinces may impose, as the provinces will deal with those themselves. So that basically, if we received CSQ, it's out of Quebec's hand and the decision resides with the...

    Hi all! Congrats to those who received AIP! Lucy you! I'm an October 17 applicant in Quebec. No ghost updates, no nothing. Starting to get worried here… I called IRCC and they couldn't tell me much except that they were still working on the BC and SA… Anyone else in the same boat? Also, I'd...
