We’ve prepared answers to common questions regarding the USPS re-verification process to ensure you remain compliant.
Q: If I submitted a 1583 form before, why do I need to do it again?
A: USPS regulations have recently changed, requiring updated compliance measures. Even if you’ve submitted a notarized 1583 form in the past, you are now required to re-verify your mailbox account using the updated July 2023 version of the form. This ensures that all forwarding addresses are verified and meet USPS compliance standards.
Q: Is re-verification mandatory?
A: Yes, this is a mandatory requirement set by the USPS. All mailbox customers must complete the updated 1583 form and verify their forwarding address by January 1, 2025, to remain compliant. Failure to comply may result in interruptions to mail forwarding services.
Q: Will I lose functionality if I don’t comply?
A: You will still retain basic functionality of your mailbox account, including forwarding mail. However, if compliance is not achieved by the deadline, USPS may take action, potentially impacting mail forwarding services. It is highly recommended to complete the process to avoid disruptions.
Q: Is your online notary required to get verified?
A: While the online notary service is not mandatory, it is strongly recommended for convenience and accuracy. The online notary ensures that your submission is correctly completed and securely processed within our platform.
