How can I verify my TFN or ARN information on Online Service for Foreign Investor?

That's a bit strange!! You'd be allocated an ARN if you don't have a TFN. If you previously set up your account and used your ARN letter (https://www.ato.gov.au/online-services/foreign-investors/accessing-online-services-for-foreign-investors#ARNnotificationletter:~:text=Residential%20application%20approval-,ARN%20notification%20letter,You%E2%80%99ll%20need%20the%20number%20next%20to%20Our%20Reference.,-Passport%20and%20visa) this could be why. If you've done everything right when setting it up, you may need to speak with our foreign investments team (https://www.ato.gov.au/individuals-and-families/investments-and-assets/foreign-investment-in-australia/contact-us-about-foreign-investment#:~:text=Foreign%20investment%20enquiries), to make sure you don't have a duplicate record. Meaning 2 accounts have been created under your name one with an ARN and one with a TFN.
