A SIN is a 9-digit number that you need to work in Canada or to use government programs and get benefits.

Request each new employee's SIN within three (3) days after the day on which their employment begins.

Good afternoon
My question is about ODSP and sponsorship.

I was previously married and sponsored my ex-husband.

I was married in 2007 my undertaking began in December 2009 and he was incarcerated and then deported April 2012. I have been on ODSP since 2005. I was never given notice of being in default and successfully co-sponsored my children December 2011.

I am now remarried and I am trying to sponsor my current husband and only now immigration message me and say I am in default I called OW they said I owe nothing I called overpayment recovery they said I owe nothing and I can't figure out if he owes anything due to privacy laws.

I called my ODSP worker she said she had no idea what is going on but nothing shows on her system either but she would look into it. I called MPP because I was getting no where and I called MP that said I can't be penalized for ODSP.

I get a call today saying I owe $7389.10 because he was listed in my family unit.

How is this possible and how is it fair I never knew I would be penalized I never asked for the money I simply told my worker that my husband that I had sponsored is now residing with me.

HELP!!!!!!

What do I do now do I fix this my kids can't loose their Dad

I want to know if you are eligible to sponsor my wife while I am on ODSP?

You may NOT sponsor if you…

7.5. Accompanying a Canadian citizen outside Canada

R61(4) provides that each day a permanent resident is outside Canada accompanying (that is,ordinarily residing with) a Canadian citizen constitutes a day of physical presence in Canada,provided that the Canadian citizen they are accompanying is a spouse or common-law partner or parent. In the case of a permanent resident outside Canada accompanying a Canadian citizen, it is not necessary to determine who is accompanying whom, nor is it necessary to determine for what purpose. In other words, under A28(2)(a)(ii) and R61(4), as long as a permanent resident is accompanying a Canadian citizen, the intent and purpose of their absences are not relevant as the residency obligation is met.

OPTION 1. Accompanying a Canadian citizen or permanent resident outside Canada

You may count each day that you accompanied a Canadian citizen or permanent resident outside Canada provided that

• the person you accompanied is your spouse, common-law partner or parent (if you are a child under 19 years of age);
• if you are accompanying a permanent resident, they were employed on a full-time basis by a Canadian business or in the public service of Canada or of a province or territory during the period you accompanied them.

Evidence required
You must provide supporting documents to prove that:

• The person you are accompanying is a Canadian citizen or permanent resident (and that the permanent resident you are accompanying meets his or her own residency obligation); and
• You are the spouse, common-law partner or child of that person.

Supporting documents may include:

• marriage licence or evidence of common-law partnership (mandatory if you are accompanying a spouse or common-law partner)
• child’s birth certificate, baptismal document, or adoption or guardianship document (mandatory if you are accompanying a parent)
• all passports or other travel documents of the person you are accompanying used in the five years before the application (mandatory)
• school or employment records
• association or club memberships
• documents showing the citizenship of the person you are accompanying, including the date the person became a Canadian citizen, or documents showing that the permanent resident you are accompanying meets their residency obligation (mandatory)
• evidence of the residential addresses of the person you are accompanying for the five (5) years before the application (mandatory)
• any other documents that you want to have considered

I have been issued a removal order at the Poe cause I didn’t meet residency obligation for the two years stay in canada within the last 5 years.

My question is what am I suppose to do to clear all my responsibilities towards canada before leaving it.

I own home and have kids and was paying my taxes for the bast 18 years.

Is there any guidelines for people leaving canada to follow.

If your document from Citizenship and Immigration Canada is a Temporary Resident Permit or a Work Permit (Employment Authorization) that says valid until or issued until a specific date, you must go to a ServiceOntario centre that provides the full suite of health card services.

Hi,

can i get maternal benefits if E.I. has not deducted from my salary? or for the House-wifes?

I became PR in 2016.

Did soft landing in Ontario but did not apply for SIN or PR card.

Now I am planning to move to Canada but for SIN application it requires either PR card or CoPR which is less than a year old.

I don't have PR card and my CoPR is more than a year old.

I have valid Permanent Resident Travel Document (PRTD).

Can I use PRTD as valid primary document for SIN number application.
