Name change q - SIN card
I know I've seen people mention here that you don't have to change your name on your SIN card.
The other day, I emailed my administrator at my employer and she reminded me to change my SIN card as well.
So... do I need to do this? Does my employer's record of my SIN card need to match their other records? What if I'm applying for another job in the future... does my given name need to match the name on my SIN card?

Re: Name change q - SIN card
Hey, that's funny I just changed mine today. I can't really tell you how it will affect future jobs and such, but it was very easy and fast.
It seems like from what everyone has said that it doesn't seem to make a difference either way.
It's super easy to change. Just go to a service canada office and show your marriage certificate and SIN and they change it for you and within 5 days you get your card.
I changed mine and no charge for it either. I know it's a long long long time away from retiring but it will effect your pension if it's different than all your other documents.
Funny enough my mom's is still in her maiden name and is not affecting the pension she is collecting. I bet it is one of those hit and miss things that it affects some and not others (like everything else government related it seems).
I agree with you on that one Jen. Where I work a lady had to change some of her documents because it didn't match her SIN card. She was in like her 80's. So sometimes they catch it sometimes they don't.
Happy Easter
