Once your Change of Address is effective, mail is forwarded to your new address as quickly as possible. However, there is no estimated delivery time for forwarded mail, and forwarded mail may be subject to additional postage. Information on the forwarding of specific mail classes is as follows:
First-Class MailŪ, First-Class Package Service, and Priority MailŪ
First-Class MailŪ, First-Class Package Service, and Priority MailŪ service is forwarded for 12 months, at no charge, as long as the sender did not place a non-forwarding endorsement on the mailpiece
During months 13-18, the mail is returned to sender with the new address
After 18 months, the mail is returned to the sender with reason for nondelivery attached.
