Keep an eye out for your work / residence permit / insurances / passport lapsing...

This may seem obvious but make sure you know exactly when each of your documents are due to expire! To begin with you may not be able to read the correspondence these companies are sending you. This makes renewal notices very difficult to understand. The last thing you want is to find out that part of your life is no longer legal... Whether it's your right to live in the country or your car insurance, have those dates marked clearly somewhere that you check regularly and if it spans more than one year... make sure you copy it over to the following year!
