Moving to a new house is a chore because there are so many things to consider. From planning to moving in, here’s a quick guide to making the move easier.<\/p>\n

1. Preparing to move<\/h2>\n

Change your address<\/h3>\n

Change your address two weeks before moving.<\/p>\n

Some institutions to update your address include banks, telcos, insurance companies, and service providers for your subscriptions. Otherwise, any letters from them will be mailed to your former home.<\/p>\n

On top of that, you will need to update your new address with the authorities within 28 days of moving in. Previously, this could be done at the nearest police station.<\/p>\n

But from 1 October 2020 onwards, you can only change your address online via ICA\u2019s e-Service<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Once you have registered your new address with ICA, they will send you a PIN by mail. You will need this PIN to finish the application. Afterwards, you will receive a sticker with your new address by mail, which you will have to stick on your IC.<\/p>\n
