For a CMRA (Commercial Mail Receiving Agent) to comply with USPS regulations, the renter must give a CMRA authorization to accept and handle their mail. This CMRA must also verify and confirm a renter's identity to accept their mail.
To complete the process, a renter must provide their CMRA with two IDs and fill out a form (1583 Form).
