US Social Security Number
Posted date : Nov 4, 2017.
Dear Bird Talk,
Our friends got a U.S. Social Security number. When I asked them what the advantages of having a U.S. number were, they simply said they thought it was a good idea. Are there advantages of a Snowbird having a U.S. Social Security number? Do you recommend it?
Thanks,
Dave Michael

Canadians can no longer obtain Social Security Numbers. If they have a reason, such as the sale of property they own in the United States, they can obtain a TIN (Tax Identification Number) – Wallace Weylie, CSA Legal Counsel
