The expiry date of the SIN should be renewed. The SIN number will stay the same.
So once you renewed your work permit you have to renew/update the expiry date of your SIN.

Hope this is clear.

It´s so weird because I went with an organization who helps immigrant and they helped me with the renewal of the worrk permit online. I wasnt clear that´s why I asked for help. And they told me I dont need to do renewal of the SIN. But it´s better to get help from trust sources so I suggest not only stay with what we say here. Get official advice. Maybe check in the canada.ca

Check your SIN number paper you received from Service Canada you will find the expiry date in bold and it match your previous work permit expiry date.

Then check the below link from canada.ca which clearly mentions that you have to update your expired SIN number

https://www.canada.ca/en/employment-social-development/services/sin/receiving-updating.html

Below is copied from the above link.

Your temporary SIN expires on the date provided in your immigration documents. You must ensure that both expiry dates match.

If you have applied for renewal of a work or study permit, and your permit expires before a decision is made, you have the right* to continue working or studying under the same conditions. You must remain in Canada during this time. This "maintained status" (previously called implied status) will remain until a decision is made by IRCC. This means you are allowed to work even though your SIN has expired. For more information about maintained status during processing, contact IRCC.

* As per paragraph 186(u) and section 189 of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations

Once IRCC authorizes you to continue working in Canada, you must apply to Service Canada with your new immigration document to update the expiry date on your SIN record. The expiry date on both your SIN record and your immigration document must match.

Hope this helps.

Then you are good.
It doesn't match by itself.
I updated by myself by submitting the update form online.
But as I told, I didnt up date it , maybe the system did by itself. Because I only made renewal for my work permit online.

It doesn't updated for me. Maybe it's a system glitch or something else I am not sure!! This is why I updated by myself.
