Social Insurance Clinics

To legally work in Canada, you need a nine-digit Social Insurance Number (SIN) issued by Service Canada.

At the beginning of each term, Seneca Polytechnic invites Service Canada to come to each campus to issue a SIN on the spot.

Bring original and valid documents listed below to your appointment:

• A study permit issued by IRCC or CIC which indicates the permit holder “may accept employment or “may work” in Canada.
• A passport.

Visit the Government of Canada website to view a list of acceptable documents.

To guarantee an appointment time, International Students must register for a specific time slot:

•  10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
