Tips and Reminders

• Make sure to update your address with all relevant parties, including banks, credit card companies, loan providers, and subscription services.
• Inform your friends, family, and colleagues of your new address.
• Keep in mind that mail forwarding services may not forward all types of mail, such as packages or certified mail.
