Moving house to a different country.

I get paid by EFT should I tell adsense?

[Wally]

I am about to move house to a different country.
Currently adsense pay me by EFT and I would like to keep this situation going.

Will Adsense send me anything by post which would shut down the relationship or would they be quite happy to keep paying without any problem?

I have a fair idea what google will say but the prospect of bank fees for the checks don't fill me with joy.

any ideas on this one?

If you still have the bank account why would they want to force you to change that?

Moving to a different country and failing to inform Google of the address change seems kind of dubious.

[hunderdown]

Right, definitely tell them of the address change, but if your bank account is still active, what's the problem?

[leadegroot]

Perhaps you can change the address to someone trustworthy near the old location so in the unlikely event they send mail you will get it?
(Imagine if they decided to reissue pins by postal mail...)
I would be loathe to ask them as they seem to have a real thing about what country you are in...

You don't have to tell them jack. It's not against the law to have an account in another country. Just change your contact info and leave the bank account alone.

Seriously, you guys need to chill out with all the OMFG-should-I-tell-google-I-farted threads.

[leadegroot]

but if you do tell them then I would expect them to close your account and tell you to open a new one in the new country - losing you a good weeks income while you changeover, at best.
Unless you are making a huge never-going-back move, I wouldn't do it, and if I did do it I would probably apply and get the new account before closing the old one so I could changeover in my own sweet time.
IMHO

Google mails out a tax-document about your earnings every year. At least, I know they do if you live in the USA. Don't know what goes on with other countries.

This subject came up here on WebmasterWorld a few months ago. I believe the person said that Google told him/her to email them and that they would make the change. Simple as that.

Well, if you look at
[google.com...]
(are google links allowed here? Answer 21591 if not)
it says 'For security reasons, you cannot change the Payee Name or Country fields once your application has been approved.'
So a new account would be required.
I've often wondered why, seems overkill.
