i registered the augest25 PCAT couple weeks ago, it asked me SSN? i dont have it or what is it anyway, how should i get it....any way i checked the NO SSN and registered.....

i was worried because it said : If you check the No SSN checkbox, your scores may not be accepted by Pharm CAS even if you choose Pharm CAS as a score recipient🙁🙁🙁am i in trouble?

It isn't hard to get an SSN. I think it's an identity thing, but you need to check with them to see if you can still change your choice. If they explicitly tell you that pharmcas MAY not accept your application, you could might run into difficulty later.

Are you from Canada or do you at least have some ID number that the government gave to you?

I would suggest calling PharmCAS directly to inquire.

wow, how did you go this long without one? you SSN is how the gov't identifies you. you need it to get a job, get benefits, and other things. it's very important. so important, that if anyone gets ahold of it who is not suppose to then they can steal your identity.

i would try getting one right away for the future

That's the Canadian equivalent of SSN. I don't have access to my application anymore so check the Candidate Information Booklet, call PharmCAS, or at least see if there's a help section on PharmCAS that tells you how to enter a SIN.
