OSAP issue after SIN change due to PR approval - anyone experienced it?
Hi everyone, I applied for part-time OSAP on April 6, 2026. On April 27, 2026, I became a permanent resident and received a new SIN. The change ended up causing problems with my OSAP application and funding.
To fix the issue, I had to create a new OSAP account with my new SIN and take additional steps to maintain my eligibility. Unfortunately, by the time everything was sorted out, I missed the deadline for my new application by only two days. My university‘s financial aid office is helping me request an exception from the ministry due to the circumstances.
Has anyone been in a similar situation involving a thin change immigration status update or a very late OE application did the Ministry approve an exception? Any advice or experiences would be appreciated.
Thanks.
