Why is it important?
If you give us your new address, you can avoid delays in benefit payments you may be receiving, such as the:
- GST/HST credit (including those from certain related provincial payments)
- Universal child care benefit
- Canada child tax benefit payments (including those from certain related provincial or territorial programs) and
- Working income tax benefit (WITB) advance payments
Note
Your personal information is confidential, so we will usually not give your new address to other government departments or Crown corporations such as Canada Post. The exception is Elections Canada, if you gave us your authorization by answering “Yes” to both Elections Canada questions on page one of your return. Contact other departments or organizations directly to give them your new address.
