The problem
Too many moving parts become too many separate trackers.
International moves create linked decisions across documents, money, accounts, shipping, pets and arrival. Flat checklists make it easy to lose sequence and verification.
Relocation system
A move-date-driven Excel system for planning an international move with clearer gates, next actions, spending decisions and handoffs.

The problem
International moves create linked decisions across documents, money, accounts, shipping, pets and arrival. Flat checklists make it easy to lose sequence and verification.
The outcome
Use one departure date to organize planning dates and next actions, then track critical gates, irreversible spending, source freshness and arrival readiness in one operating record.
Core workflows
Departure date → calculated planning dates → Next Actions
Critical Gates → what must become clear before dependent decisions
Spend Gates → GO / HOLD before non-refundable commitments
Sources & Facts → source, checked date, recheck date and linked gate
Accounts & Access → phone, email, banking and 2FA migration planning
Base-currency budget → clearer totals across currencies
