Default Moving Diary

Not sure if anyone has done this here but what about section for moving diaries.Bit like a blog on what involved in moving and list everything that you had to do,like inform electric company and pensions etc.It could then be useful for others making the move.

Don't forget to de-register for tax in the UK.
Cyprus and the Uk have a reciprocal agreement so you can pay tax here which is less than the Uk.

I will make this thread a sticky.

Also lots of photo copies birth certificate etc.If you have children schooling needs to be sorted.
I am sure there is a member that will be in process of moving that will start a diary of everything they have had to do.

Believe me... they won't let you ignore it! Write to or telephone the people lending the money, let them know your new address and ask them the question. You may have to pay it all off immediately if you are leaving the country, it depends on your terms & conditions. On the other hand they might reduce your payments if your income will be reduced
