Hello !
I received it today(24th May 2019)

I would suggest keep checking with Service Canada that's what I did and if you have an offer in hand they can even mark your case as urgent, thats what worked in my case. It was marked URGENT on 15th May and I received it today.

All the best! Hope you get your SIN number soon

Hi, I ran into the same problem a few weeks ago. Went to Service Canada, they told me my profile was "flagged" but couldn't tell me why. I went back home and called CIC, they told me my profile hadn't updated yet. I went back to Service Canada the next week, same problem. This time I had somebody helpful on the line, telling me something went wrong during my landing (computer or CBSA officer error, not clear which one) and I had to go back to port of entry. After another phone call to CBSA, turned out I could just go to a CBSA office, where they then properly "landed" me. Went from that office straight to Service Canada and obtained my SIN.

Do not wait until your PR Card arrives because something might have gone wrong during your landing too. Keep calling CIC until you get somebody helpful on the phone who can tell you exactly what the problem is. Otherwise you will have waited for months for nothing.

My apologies for the late reply.

So, when I landed, something went wrong (whether it was the officers fault, or a computer error, I don't know), and so the system did not know I had landed. That meant that the PR card process didn't get started. So when I went to get my SIN, I couldn't get it, because I wasn't in the system as a PR. After calling Immigration Canada multiple times, the second or third person I talked to, explained to me that there had been an error during my landing and that nothing had been set in motion.

So no, SIN and PR aren't directly linked, but if you aren't in the system as a Permanent Resident, it is obviously impossible to get your SIN.

I called customs in the city I had landed (Victoria,BC) and told them what happened. They told me I had to go back to a customs office and land (again). They made sure everything was ok, every button was clicked, and I had officially landed.
I went to Service Canada right after I had successfully landed (literally around the corner) and 20 minutes later I had my SIN.
My PR Card arrived about 8 weeks later, if I recall correctly.

Hi brother.. I am in the same situation.. I could not a sin number because it said I was flagged.. and I called ircc.. they said they wil fix it. But I am working because my copr is expiring on June 16.. and I landed on June 11 and informed ircc on June 14. Will this be an issue ?

You can’t work without a SIN number. You have landed before the expiry date of your COPR so you are fine.

Have all of you who were facing issues with getting SIN received it? I landed on 23rd July went to service Canada on 24th July and was told that there is some issue with online application and will have to send manual application for SIN. I called SIN helpline number 2 days back and they said they are currently processing applications for 15th March. According to this I don't see myself receiving SIN till end of this year. Please let me know if those of you facing issues have received it.

Hello!
I'm facing a similar situation, after landing in Canada I went to Service Canada, they couldn't generate my SIN number and asked me to wait for a week and try again. I went after a week and was asked to do a paper application this was on 19th of March 2019. It's 14th of May today I'm still waiting to get my SIN number.
Visited Service Canada Last week, they could not do much, however they gave me am acknowledgement letter, not sure if my employer will accept the same.
Service Canada doesn't know how long it'll take for me to receive my SIN number, they've marked my case as URGENT, I'm hoping for the best.

Have u received ur sin
