Canadian financial institutions are required by federal law to collect your Social Insurance Number (SIN) before opening a registered account, such as a TFSA or RRSP. This ensures your investment income and contributions are reported correctly for tax purposes.
How your SIN is used and protected
Protecting your information is a top priority. We do not sell your personal data.
Your SIN may be shared only with trusted service providers when it’s necessary to:
verify your identity
open and administer your registered account
transfer funds to and from your accounts
All partners are required to handle your information in accordance with our Privacy Policy and applicable regulations.
