Other Things To Note:

Ensure you’ve confirmed the presence of a TIN# for both yourself and your family members. Remember to bring valid photo identification, such as a passport, driver’s license, or government services card.
Prepare a folder containing any financial documents you may need to access, including investment details, RRSPs, car loans, personal loans, contribution statements, pay stubs with deductions, and federal tax reports.
If you’re selling your current home before embarking on your house-hunting journey, be sure to bring a copy of your signed contract of purchase and sale.

Important things to Consider:

Are you informed about the current availability of PMQs (Military housing)? Due to the
competitive housing and rental market on Vancouver Island, these units tend to be quickly
occupied and may have lengthy waitlists. For further details, please refer to the link provided for
Comox.

Daycare facilities in the Comox Valley, (including Kinnikinnik Childcare Center) often have
limited availability and lengthy waitlists. We strongly advise joining multiple waitlists as soon as
possible to increase your chances of securing childcare to srat when you need it.

Wondering which professionals in the community are best equipped to handle the complexities of
a military or RCMP relocation? We can provide recommendations and introductions to specific
types of professionals who specialize in assisting with such moves.
