OSAP - Sin Number Question
So, Osap says that you need your Sin Card or a Notice of Assessment from the CRA...
I have neither. The only things I have are papers from H&R Block with my Sin number on them... more specifically, I have a paper "2009 Tax Return Summary," "Statement of Discounting Transaction," and "Information Return for Electronic Filing of an Individual's Income Tax and Benefit Return."
Will any of those do?
I already had to have my passport mailed over b/c I don't have any I.D... I don't want to wait again for a Sin Card I'm pretty sure no longer exists.

The document with your SIN number has to be from the government. I don't know if any of those are valid (entirely because I don't even know what those are >.<), but if there is title that indicates one of the government sections then it should be fine. If they don't then you can request your SIN information: http://www.servicecanada.gc. ca/eng...uestinfo.shtml

Well the papers I have are all from H&R Block but on one of them, there's the canadian flag logo at the top and it says Canada Revenue Agency beside it...

That sounds like it could work... I mean, if the logo and title is there then it should mean that they validate the document.

To answer my own question, they won't allow it.
Even though the ***** at the desk told me it'd be alright and told me to come back another day. ._.
