Sponsorshio INLAND, question about the temporary work permit

[parapara23]

I am going to apply for the sponsorship INLAND, but I have a couple questions related with the temporary work permit that you get until you get your permanent work permit.

Can I get a Canada driving license having the temporary work permit?

Can I get my own credit card?

Thanks!

Can I get a Canada driving license having the temporary work permit?

Yes. Most provinces will give you some form of DL with an OWP.

Can I get my own credit card?

I believe so. You get a temporary SIN, and this is what credit companies use to identify you. Unfortunately, it doesn't make much sense because when you get your PR, you will lose that temporary number and be given a permanent number. I suspect you might lose the credit history you are building.
