Changing Your Address With the Canada Revenue Agency

Changing Your Address With the Canada Revenue Agency When you move, you should notify the Canada Revenue Agency  as soon as possible. Keeping your address up to date will make sure that you receive your income tax refund and benefit payments, including related provincial payments, such as GST/HST credit payments, universal child care benefit payments, Canada child tax benefit payments and working income tax benefit advance payments, without interruption.
