I am currently working in Canada as a foreign worker and have recently changed my employer and absolutely work permit as well.
I wanted to know by changing the work permit, does my SIN also be changed, or I just need to renew my current one?

Thanks

Just renew this one, it only changes when you become permanent resident
The whole if you are on study permit work permit it's same you just need to renew it every time you get new study work or work permit

Thanks for your prompt response.
The reason which I asked this question is I got my 'In Canada Approval Letter' for my work permit and started my job but was not sure that I should share the same SIN (as it is still valid to end of this year) with my new employer or I need to get a new one.

As I have understood from your explanation, I can share my current SIN and just renew and update the expiry date of it before it will be expired. Correct?

BTW, Thanks a lot for your help
