Emigrating to Canada, keeping options open at home.

We are looking at emigrating to Canada, and for obvious reasons, we are hoping to keep our house/car/accounts here in Ireland, in case things don't work out in Canada.

Is there a website which can tell us what we should do, do we have to inform the bank/revenue/insurance company that we are leaving the country?

Or if there is anyone out there who has gone through this who can shed some light on it for us.
 
I don't think it makes much sense to keep a car in the long term. Maybe you could leave it with a relative for a month or two, and let the relative sell it on your behalf. You may need to pre-sign ownership transfer forms.

In relation to your house, if you plan to rent it out, you will need to notify your insurance company, your bank (assuming it is mortgaged) and the PRTB.

For your bank, you'll need to make arrangements for them to either hold your statements or send them to a forwarding address.
