How to obtain SIN?

[DanielEcu]

I was reading the official information about getting a SIN card, but it turned out to be a bit more confusing than I expected... Can anybody please put the process in a nutshell for me, please? This will help others as well, I suppose.

Thank you!

Take your passport with your study permit to a Service Canada office and ask for a SIN.

Cannot get any simpler than that, yes.

They never asked me for the passport, ever! Just the study permit. ;D

That is great, they put much more complicated on the official webpage!
