Personal Health Record     
A Personal Health Record is an important document for any traveller. In the event of a medical emergency while travelling, a Personal Health Record can help unfamiliar medical professionals to quickly review your medical history and assess your condition. CSA members and Registered Users of Snowbirds.org can now use the NEW and FREE CSA Medipac Personal Health Record interactive function to create their own Personal Health Record to take with them on their travels. To access, click on the "Health Record" link in the Members Only navigation menu on the left.



Sunday Showcase Radio Show     
Every Sunday morning, you can listen to what's new in the Snowbird world by tuning into the CSA/Medipac Report, live on AM740 at 10:30am. If you're not in the listening area, or if you miss a broadcast, you can tune into and browse our online archive. Simply click the "Sunday Showcase" link in the left navigation menu.



8840 Closer Connection Form     
Canadian residents who winter in the U.S. are technically subject to U.S. income tax if they exceed a specific number of days in the U.S. in any one year. To avoid U.S. taxation, IRS form 8840 (Closer Connection Exemption Statement for Aliens) needs to be filed annually with the U.S. Internal Revenue Service. As a member of the CSA we provide a hard copy 8840 form to you each year with your CSA renewal. If you need an extra copy, members can also download the form from Snowbirds.org. In the left navigation menu click the link "8840 and W8-BEN". In order to view and download the form, you must be logged in.



Travel Health Advisories     
The Public Health Agency of Canada regularly issues "Travel Health Advisories" on various countries and regions across the globe. CSA members are increasingly becoming more adventurous and travelling to more exotic destinations. That's why we've installed a direct link to the Travel Health Advisories issued by the Canadian Government. Whenever there is a new Advisory a notice will be posted to the "What's New" section after you login. You'll never miss a beat!



Currency Exchange – COMPARE OUR RATES     
Currency exchange rates from the Snowbird Currency Exchange Program and those of three leading financial institutions can now be compared online. Also view a graph of the last six months to see just how well (or not) the Canadian dollar has been doing.

To view the Snowbird Currency Exchange Comparison Graph, you must login. Follow the link “Exchange Rate” in the Members Only navigation menu.
