The U.S. Postal Service is enhancing security protocols surrounding its change of address (COA) service by implementing additional identity verification methods. These enhancements are designed to address global identity theft concerns, and to protect our customers\u2019 information. The change of address service remains simple and convenient to use. It can be completed in a few steps, online at\u00a0USPS.com, or by visiting one of more than 33,000 local Post Office\u2122\ufe0f locations.<\/p>\n

Getting Started:\u00a0Before the Address Change<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Mail will only be forwarded to your new address, if you submit a Change of Address with the USPS. You can make the Change of Address process faster and easier by notifying everyone who sends you mail of your new address and the date of your move at least two weeks before you move. Most bills and statements have an area for making an address change notification. Make sure you use a complete address that contains all necessary address elements, house number, street name, directional (N, E, S, or W), (apt., suite, room #), city, state and ZIP Code\u2122.<\/p>\n

A COA request can be submitted 90 days\u00a0before\u00a0<\/em>the effective date of your move, and up to 30 days\u00a0after\u00a0<\/em>the date of your move.<\/strong><\/p>\n
