Frequently Asked Questions

How much does your service cost & are their other options?

Our service is absolutely FREE, so there is no credit card required. When the COA request is made online through the US Postal Service™ (USPS®), there is a $1.00 identity validation fee. We are able to bypass this fee by verifying your information with a live agent on the phone. If you don’t feel confortable verifying your information with a live FMA agent or even using your credit card with the USPS®, you can fill out PS Form 3575, print it, and drop it off at or mail it to your local United States Post Office™.

How does ForwardMyAddress.com make money?

When your FMA agent is verifying your information, they can also assist you with other needs you might have when moving into your new home. Through the agent recommendations of different providers is where we capitalize from the venders. You are more then welcome to verbally opt out of any additional services if you just want to forward your mail.

How do I get started?

Visit our home page at ForwardMyAddress.com and click the GET STARTED button to complete all required fields to forward your address.

The live agent will contact you then verify your old and new addresses along with your personal information. When your information has been confirmed, you will receive a final email that you must confirm to complete the process.

What if I don't file a Change of Address?

If you move without filing a Change of Address request, you local mail carrier will gather all your accumulated mail and leave a note letting you know to pick it up at your local US Post Office™ instead of getting forwarded to your new address. Your local Post Office™ will hold any of your accumulated mail for up to 10 calendar days. Every piece of mail that can be sent back will be returned to the sender & the rest of the mail will be discarded.
