How do we track our Certified Mail?

Certified Mail is used for important letters concerning legal and business matters such as lawsuits, debt collection, insurance policy changes, construction liens, asset repossesion, and hundreds more. Thousands of state statues and Federal Codes specific the use of Certified Mail because it provide USPS Proof of Acceptance (Mailing) and Proof of Delivery. 

Each Certified Mail piece received a 22 digit code from the USPS. The old-fashioned way to check the status of your Certified Mail piece is to type the 22 digit code into a search box on USPS.com. This is quite tedius and prone to error. 

However, when you use SimpleCertifiedMail.com, the USPS Proof of Acceptance (Electronic) is automatically posted to your account within hours of the mailpiece getting its first scan by the USPS. This PDF file is stored in your account for 10 years, and can be downloaded if you want to store it locally, or need to email it to someone. 

Futher, the Return Receipt (Electronic) ("RRE") is also posted to your account within 24 hours of the letter being delivered, eliminate the PS3811 Green Card, which quite often get lost or damaged on their return, and are a hassle to store. 

From a mailer's perspective, the Return Receipt Electronic has many obvious benefits. For example, by receiving the Return Receipt Electronic within 24 hours of the mail piece being delivered, an attorney can submit this certificate of service to the court clerk much faster than before as there is no waiting for Green Cards. And this means the court will set the court date much sooner. A second obvious benefit is that the law firm can save the Return Receipt Electronic to their client files and easily recall it at any time. No more hunting through file cabinets trying the find the PS3811 Green Card. 

For the 30% of users who don't need a signature, the service posts to your account the Proof of Delivery (Electronic) with all the info of the RRE, except of course for the signature.

In addition, you can have the Proof of Acceptance Electronic, Proof of Delivery Electronic, and Return Receipt Electronic (all are PDF files) automatically emailed to you and others.
