"in Care Of" Question

[Ladybug13 12]

Thank you to everyone who has answered my questions lately.  I have another one, and it may be silly.

 

Do we need to fill out the "in care of" for line 15a. and 17a. in the i751?  The mailing address is our PO box and the physical address is our apartment. 

 

Should we leave it blank or write N/A?

 

Thank you!

The case where I can see that being used is if your name is not on the mailbox in an apartment or condo complex that has multi-unit mailboxes. I know we had to put Jaycel's maiden last name in the mailbox before the post office would deliver mail in her maiden name to us. We keep it in there just in case she gets something sent to her in her maiden name. I can see that being used if you are using a family member's address for your mailing address or something like that as well.

Ok we will put my husband's name just in case since we have mailboxes in a multi-unit apartment home and a po box that we are using as our mailing address since we may move before the card is produced. 

 

Thank you!

Do not use the "in care of" unless you your using an address that is not yours.

 

You fill out your mailing address and your physical address. Leave it blank or N/A it (check the instructions)

 

The "in care off" is a way for the USPS to deliver mail that is not addressed to the actual resident. 

It should be used for stuff like;

having your mail delivered at an hotel

having stuff addressed to you but delivered to your parents while you are over you for the holidays.

have mail delivered to an office for a specific person

 

By law the USPS is not allowed to deliver mail to address that is not yours (nobody cares anymore but it's still there). USCIS has to give the option for you to abide by the postal laws.
