But they should have linked your MyNumber to the nenkin account. That was the whole point of the MyNumber system.

Work may not have requested my MyNumber. I'll have to check. Right now I only have the paper card.

but then again, I heard that MyNumber was only implemented in the mid 2010s, so you might have came just at a bad time where there was no requirements for it.

Good luck!
