So, you've submitted your change of address with the USPS – fantastic! Now comes the confirmation, and understanding it is key. This confirmation isn't just a formality; it's your peace of mind. It verifies that the USPS has received your request and is processing it.
Pay close attention to the details. Does the start date reflect when you want your mail forwarded? Are the forwarding addresses (old and new) correct? Errors can happen, so double-check everything!
Keep this confirmation in a safe place. It's handy for contacting the USPS if any issues arise. It’s also a good reminder to update other important institutions and services of your new address. While the USPS handles mail forwarding, it’s crucial to notify banks, subscriptions, and other accounts directly. A little proactive work now saves a lot of headaches later! Congrats on the move!
