You need to tell the CRA your new address if you move.

Your benefit and credit payments may stop if you do not. This is the case even if you use direct deposit and your bank account does not change.

The CRA will not share your change of address with other government departments. You need to contact each government department or agency to give them your new address (e.g. Service Canada Employment Insurance office, IRCC, etc). See Change your address with a different department or agency
