PS Form 3849 is used for which type of notice?

• A. Sorry we Missed You Notice
• B. Delivery Notice
• C. Change of Address
• D. Postage Statement

Answer: (B)

PS Form 3849 is the Delivery Notice/Reminder Card used when a delivery attempt can’t be completed. It is left by the carrier to let you know that a delivery was attempted and that you have options to receive the item—either request a redelivery or pick it up at your local post office. It usually includes the tracking information and instructions for how to obtain the mail or package, along with the time window for pickup or redelivery. This isn’t a Change of Address notice, which is about routing mail to a new address, nor a Postage Statement, which is something mailers use to account for postage. The form’s purpose is specifically to inform you about a missed delivery and how to obtain the item.
