I have just bought a house and will be moving into it next week.

I have made a list of names who should be informed of the address change as under:

1. All Banks
2. Credit Cards companies
3. Driving Licence
4. Health Card
5. HRDC (since I am on UI right now!)
6. Citizenship office (since my citizenship application is pending)

Can anyone suggest any other important government or non- government body that I should or am required to inform of the address change?

I changed my OHIP address using internet, but it seems it is not available now.

You might already knowing this, but post canada can divert your mails to new address for six months. The charge is $33 plus taxes.

You also have to change addresses for insurance companies, phone (naturally), cable, cell phone, your professional organizations etc.
