Hello everyone
I'm protected person and I'm currently waiting for a work permit renewal. During this time I moved and changed my adress thru https://services3.cic.gc.ca/ecas/changeaddress

As far as I understand this will change my adress for my PR application also. But is it going to change my adress for my new work permit thru gc key accaunt? Or I need to make changes in my application?

Please raise a web form mentioning your work permit file number to change your address. Else it'll be delivered to the address you gave while applying for the renewal of your work permit. I would also suggest calling IRCC after 4/5 days to confirm if they have received your address change request or not.

My new adress already shows in the system
When I click change adress for example, its shows my new adress

My concern was having new adress on work permit renewal

I followed theclaimer's advice (upper thread) and filled the web form with my question and work permit pending application

Let's see)) I dont have access to my old house. There are new people living there

You can leave a note to the new tenant or the landlord of the previous house. The same thing happened to me. When I moved out, I changed all addresses but forgot to change the WP one. I realized when the WP was already issued and about to be sent to my previous address. I raised the web form but by then the WP was sent out. I did not call IRCC (my mistake, I did not realize that calling them was the fastest option). I requested my past landlord, and he was kind enough to inform the new tenant, and the tenant informed my past landlord. This is how I got my renewal WP back.
Good luck to you!
