How it works

From a long mental list to a clear plan

You remain in control of every address change. The tool simply organizes the work and points you in the right direction.

1

Select your organizations

Search the directory and add the government services, utilities, financial institutions, insurers, and other accounts that apply to you.

2

Follow the official links

Your checklist shows the official website and any available phone details for each selected organization.

Mark each organization as notified. Your progress can remain available when you return using the same browser, as long as its data has not been cleared.

Change of address checklist questions

What to expect before you start building your list.

What does the MovingWaldo change of address tool do?

It helps you choose organizations, find their available official contact details, and track which address changes you have completed. It does not send your address to those organizations.

Does MovingWaldo change my address for me?

No. You complete every change directly with the organization. MovingWaldo provides an organized checklist and links to help you get there.

Who should I notify when I move?

Common examples include government services, your health plan, driver licensing, banks, credit cards, insurers, utilities, internet providers, your employer, schools, subscriptions, delivery accounts, and Canada Post.

Where is my checklist saved?

Your selections and completion status are saved only in the browser you are using. They are not tied to an account and may disappear if you clear browser data.

Should I use this tool on a shared device?

Your checklist does not contain your old or new address, but another person using the same browser profile may be able to see which organizations you selected and completed.

How current are the website links and phone numbers?

We verify each listing against official organization sources. Because contact details can change, always confirm the instructions on the organization’s website and report a link that looks incorrect.
