WHERE TO CHANGE YOUR ADDRESS

Posted on Jul 10, 2020 in For Buyers

Congratulations! Your deal is now firm, and you have either bought or sold a property. Although a mail-forward with Canada Post can help ensure you don’t miss any important mail while you transition, you will still need to update your address eventually.

Here is a list that should help you not miss anyone important:

▫️ Family and Friends
  ▫️ Landlord (if you are a tenant and bought your first home)
  ▫️ Banks and Credit Card Companies
  ▫️ Federal and Government Agencies
  ▫️ Insurance Companies (Auto, Life, and Home)
  ▫️ Investment Companies (RRSP, Mutual Funds)
  ▫️ Utility Providers (Gas, Electricity, Water, TV/Satellite, Phone, Cell Phone, Cable, Internet)
  ▫️ Home Security Provider
  ▫️ Your Employer
  ▫️ Schools/Children’s Clubs/Day Homes/Day Care
  ▫️ Kid’s or Your Extracurricular Activities
  ▫️ Alberta Health
  ▫️ Doctor/Dentist/Optician/Pharmacist
  ▫️ Other Health Specialists (Massage, Chiropractor, Acupuncture)
  ▫️ Professional Services (Accountant, Lawyer)
  ▫️ Gym/Health Club
  ▫️ Veterinarian/Dog Daycare/Pet Insurance/City Pet License
  ▫️ Drivers Licence and Vehicle Registration
  ▫️ Subscriptions (Newspapers, Magazines)
  ▫️ Amazon Prime Membership
  ▫️ Delivery Apps (SkipTheDishes, Uber)

While the list could go on and on, we always recommend setting up a mail forwarding system with Canada Post. Just in case you forgot to tell your great aunt the news!
