Closing bank account when leaving (退職金)

I'll be leaving the country end of September. I know that the correct procedure is to close my bank account (MUFG) before actually leaving. However, I'll be receiving a few MJPY in severance pay in October.

Would it be wise to keep the account open for an extra month? I could also change the address to my in-laws'.

Another option would be to keep my Wise account, change the address and receive the money there. However, I'm not sure my company can make a transfer to a Wise account, and in any case it can only hold 1MJPY (or is this only while I'm a resident in Japan?).

Thanks for reading
