SnapMailbox FAQs
Why do I need to fill out Form 1583?
We are required by law to have your original copy of the completed Form 1583 before we can process your mail.
Can I change my address with the USPS?
If you want to change your home or business address to your SnapMailbox address, you’ll need to file a Change of Address (COA) with the United State Postal Service (USPS). You can file a COA online, over the phone, or at the post office. Your SnapMailbox account includes a PS Form 3575 with your new address to use, and you’ll need to verify your identity. For more information, read the USPS Change of Address FAQ.After filing your COA, the USPS usually processes the request in 7-10 business days. You’ll receive a Permanent Change of Address Confirmation and a Welcome Kit to your new address, which we’ll upload to your SnapMailbox account. The USPS will continue to forward your mail from your old address for 12 months and up to 60 days for periodicals and magazines. We recommend that you notify anyone who sends you mail of your new address.You only need to file one COA if everyone in your group who wants their mail sent to the new address has the same last name. If one or more people have a different last name, each individual will need to file a COA for the new mailing address.If you only want your business mail to switch from your home address to your SnapMailbox address, you need to file one COA for your business mail. However, you’ll need to file two forms if you send both your personal and business mail to your new address.
What do I do if I have issues saving my shipping address?
The autocomplete function on some web browsers might be causing some issues. We recommend filling out your shipping address on your own. If the problem persists, don’t hesitate to contact your customer service representative for assistance.

If you don’t hear from us within a couple of days after sending your form, contact us to check on the status of your account.
