Activating your iMailVault

To activate your iMailVault account, follow these steps:

1. Complete your account registration
2. Submit Form 1583 (USPS requirement)
3. Provide valid identification
4. Wait for verification (usually 1-2 business days)

Once verified, you can start using your virtual address immediately.

Form 1583 is a USPS requirement that authorizes iMailVault to receive mail on your behalf. It's mandatory for all virtual mailbox services in the United States.

The form includes:

• Your personal information
• Valid identification details
• Authorization for mail handling
• Notarization requirement

Your virtual address can be used for:

• Business registration and licensing
• Banking and financial services
• Tax purposes and IRS correspondence
• Legal documents and court filings
• Online shopping and package delivery
• Professional correspondence

Note: Some services may require a physical address, so always check with the specific organization first.

Activation typically takes 1-2 business days after we receive your completed Form 1583 and identification documents.

Factors that may affect timing:

• Document clarity and completeness
• Notarization requirements
• USPS processing times
• Holiday schedules

We'll notify you via email once your account is activated and ready to use.

You'll need to provide:

• Primary ID: Driver's license, passport, or state ID
• Secondary ID: Social Security card, birth certificate, or utility bill
• Proof of Address: Recent utility bill or bank statement

All documents must be clear, legible, and current. Expired documents will not be accepted.
