TODOs: Switching to paperless bills ...

This is something that you need to setup early on and make sure it works - even after you have changed your preferences, have you seen it working reliably? There will always be few which will keep coming. If you switch all of the bills to e-bills in-advance, at least you will know which once's are still arriving by snail mail and have a bit of time to reset those again or call one of those dear customer support agents.

Did I say you still need a forwarding address in US? Sure, you need one - some of the mails like last Electricity bill check for refund has to be a paper bill! God knows for what reason - you paid by credit card or automatic payment all the time but last check needs to be a physical check. There will be more things like your kids school completion certificate, other last bills, magazines etc which will still keep coming for some time. Your US tax reporting information might be a snail mail as well. In summary, have a US forwarding address, say, a friend's address, who can open all of your mails in confidentiality and let you know if there is something important ASAP.
