Us mail name change

To change your name with the United States Postal Service (USPS), you'll need to follow these steps:

1. Gather required documents: You'll need to provide proof of your name change, which can be one of the following:
   • A certified copy of your marriage certificate (if you've changed your name due to marriage)
   • A certified copy of your divorce or annulment decree (if you've changed your name due to divorce or annulment)
   • A certified copy of your court-ordered name change (if you've changed your name for any other reason)
   • A valid government-issued ID with your new name (such as a driver's license or passport)
2. Fill out the necessary forms: You'll need to complete a few forms to initiate the name change process:
   • PS Form 3575: This is the "Address Change Request" form, which you can download from the USPS website or pick up at your local post office.
   • PS Form 6101: This is the "Name Change Request" form, which you'll need to fill out if you're changing your name due to marriage, divorce, or court-ordered name change.
3. Submit your forms and documents: Take your completed forms and supporting documents to your local post office. The postal service representative will review your application and verify your identity.
4. Wait for processing: The USPS will process your name change request and update your records. This may take a few days to a week.
5. Verify your name change: Once your name change is processed, you can verify it by checking your mail or online account.

Additional tips:

• Make sure to sign your forms and documents in the presence of a notary public, if required.
• Keep a copy of your completed forms and supporting documents for your records.
• If you're changing your name due to marriage, you may need to provide a copy of your marriage certificate with your application.
• If you're changing your name due to divorce or annulment, you may need to provide a copy of your divorce or annulment decree with your application.

Online name change: The USPS offers an online name change service, which allows you to change your name online and receive a new address label. To use this service, you'll need to:

1. Go to the USPS website and log in to your account.
2. Click on "Address" and then "Name Change" to start the process.
3. Follow the prompts to fill out the necessary forms and upload your supporting documents.
4. Review and submit your application.
5. Wait for processing and verification.

Note that the online name change service may not be available for all types of name changes, so you may need to visit a post office in person if your situation is more complex.
