Forwarding Magazines
Forward magazines for reassigned personnel for a
period of 60 days after the service member’s departure.
Directory clerks must endorse this mail: “CHANGE
OF ADDRESS DUE TO OFFICIAL ORDERS” and
“ADVISE YOUR CORRESPONDENT OR
PUBLISHER OF YOUR CORRECT MAILING
ADDRESS” (see figure 11-11).
Do not forward magazines after the 60-day
forwarding period has expired.
On the first copy of a magazine received after an
individual transfers:
Prepare a PS Form 3579 (see figure 11-12)
listing the forwarding address.
Affix the PS Form 3579 near the old address or
address label.
Cut out the PS Form 3579 and that portion of the
publication, wrapper, or envelope containing the
old address and place inside USPS envelope
EP-1865-D (see figure 11-12).
Mail the envelope to the publisher (sender) after:
– Entering your command’s return address in
the upper left-hand corner of the envelope.
– Computing the postage due (refer to the DMM
for amount to charge per notice).
– Entering the number of notices enclosed.
– Entering the publisher’s (sender’s) address in
the address space.
Write the individual’s name and forwarding
address on a label and attach to the article. Endorse the
article “CHANGE OF ADDRESS DUE TO
OFFICIAL ORDERS,” and “ADVISE YOUR
CORRESPONDENT OR PUBLISHER OF YOUR
CORRECT MAILING ADDRESS.” When this has
been completed, forward the article to the addressee.
Prepare PS Form 3579 again after the 60-day
forwarding period has expired if you continue to
receive the magazine.
NOTE: More than one form may be mailed to the
same publisher in one envelope; however, postage due
must be rated for each form enclosed. For example, if
the amount is 50 cents per notice, and you enclose two
forms, the postage due will be $1.00. Three forms will
be $1.50 postage due, etc.
