If all you need is an image of the card, just shoot a JPEG with a Macro
Lens.

Is a SIN card like a get-out-of-jail-free card? You Canadians are so
organized!
I can't imagine how scanning could affect the mag strips. If you are
really worried, try it with a seldom-used credit card and see what
happens.

I have tried to search this but not much out there.
I want to scan my important cards, like my birth certificate, my
SIN card, health card etc. Some have magnetic strip others do not,
will the action of scanning damage the strips in any way. Using as
back up evidence in case of theft etc.
