How can I comply with the Post Office move update requirement?
NCOA is one of the USPS-approved methods of complying with the November 2008 move update requirement. The purpose of move update is to keep mail that isn’t deliverable as addressed out of the mail stream. Complying with move update is a requirement for qualifying for a postage discount and applies to both first class presort and standard (including non profit) mail. Of the five USPS-approved methods, the two most commonly used is NCOA (which is performed on the mail list prior to mailing) and ancillary service endorsement (wording printed on the mail piece to tell the USPS what to do if it is undeliverable) which is a post-mailing process. NCOA and ancillary service endorsement can be used together if desired. Move update is address-specific (rather than list-specific) and addresses must be verified every 95 days.
