"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"3657039\" data-originallang=\"en\">Basically, if we look at the number in the last fiscal year, we had a bit more than 4,500 investigations that led to a conclusion that there was a misuse of the social insurance number. But there were investigations associated with the potential misuse of a SIN.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3657040\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Most of them\u2014I will say three-quarters of them\u2014were related to a benefits investigation at the same time, and about 1,400 were related to potential issues raised with SIN applications. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3657041\" data-originallang=\"en\">When we do an investigation, it is not necessarily about misuse; it could be a situation in which we have a flag in our social insurance registry, as one example, that someone is deceased and someone comes to the office to reactivate the SIN or get a new SIN card. Before providing them with their social insurance number, we refer them to our internal investigator to go further in questioning the individual and getting additional pieces of identification to confirm whether or not the person who requests the SIN issuance is the right person.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"3657039\" data-originallang=\"en\">Essentiellement, si l'on examine les chiffres du dernier exercice, nous avons men\u00e9 plus de 4 500 enqu\u00eates, aux termes desquels nous avons conclu qu'il y avait utilisation frauduleuse du num\u00e9ro d'assurance sociale. Mais il y a eu des enqu\u00eates li\u00e9es \u00e0 l'utilisation potentiellement frauduleuse d'un NAS.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3657040\" data-originallang=\"en\">Dans la plupart des cas \u2014 je dirais que pour les deux tiers \u2014, il s'agissait aussi d'une enqu\u00eate parall\u00e8le sur les prestations, et environ 1 400 portaient sur des probl\u00e8mes possibles li\u00e9s \u00e0 des demandes de NAS.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3657041\" data-originallang=\"en\">Lorsque nous faisons enqu\u00eate, il ne s'agit pas n\u00e9cessairement de fraude; il se pourrait tout simplement qu'il y ait une indication dans le registre d'assurance sociale; \u00e0 titre d'exemple, le d\u00e9tenteur d'un NAS est d\u00e9c\u00e9d\u00e9, mais une autre personne se pr\u00e9sente au bureau pour r\u00e9activer ce NAS ou obtenir une nouvelle carte d'assurance sociale. Avant de donner un num\u00e9ro d'assurance sociale \u00e0 une personne, nous la renvoyons \u00e0 notre enqu\u00eateur interne pour qu'il la questionne davantage et qu'il obtienne d'autres pi\u00e8ces d'identit\u00e9 afin de confirmer si, oui ou non, le requ\u00e9rant faisant la demande de num\u00e9ro d'assurance sociale n'est pas un imposteur.</p>"
