You can't forward your mail to another country. You can either have it held at your local post office and return to pick it up or contact any entity of importance that you expect to receive postal mail from and change your address with them.

They won't forward mail to Canada. You would have to find another service to do this for you.

That is strange. I was able to forward my US mail through US postal service to Canada when I moved back to Canada from US. I wonder if they removed this service recently.

I tried in May this year and they won't forward it. Seems so odd that they won't .
I contacted important places such as banks, credit card companies, etc. And gave them my new address.
I lived in Texas and was told to google Texas mail addresses and I could pay a private company to provide a USA address, not a po box, but a suite for 40.00 monthly. They offer forwarding your mail, scanning, opening if you wish..then email the scan to you. But I did not do it because I didn't want to pay.

I just did this a few months ago. You can forward mail from the U.S. to Canada, but you have to go to a U.S. post office to do it. You can't do it online. It is free.

This is what I did also. I went to the US post office in person to arrange the forwarding service to Canada.
