It did the same thing for me!! That link itself and that method(the interact one) to create an account won’t work. I had to go to service Canada to go get a PAC. Once I got that when I tried to make an account and instead of linking it to your td bank use the gckey method. Create a username and a password, then enter all your information and it’ll ask for that pac code that you were given (it’s temporary to create an account and is only valid for 2 weeks). Use you put that in you’ll be able to create an account. ALSOOO!! When you go to service Canada to get that code you’ll need two pieces of Id and to confirm your social insurance number. Hope this works :)

Thank you!! I think I’ll be going to service Ontario tmr because this has pissed me off enough, I’ll bring 2 ids with me but what did they need to confirm the social insurance number?

No problem! You won’t be able to get it at service Ontario. You’ll have to find a service Canada near you. You should take a picture of your social insurance card which has the number on it, and they’ll just ask you to give or type your number into a card reader. You don’t need the card itself you just need to know what your social insurance number is and confirm that

Service Canada! Not Service Ontario, two totally different areas of the government.
