If you move, let the CRA know your new address as soon as possible.

Keeping your information up-to-date will ensure that you keep getting your GST/HST credit (including those from certain related provincial payments), Canada child benefit payments (including those from certain related provincial or territorial programs), and advanced Canada workers benefit payments you may be entitled to, as well as important correspondence from the CRA. Otherwise, your payments may stop or you may not get important correspondence like your notice of assessment.
