FASTforward® MLOCR
The FASTforward system consists of a Postal Service-owned, and user-licensed, computer system containing FASTforward name and address-matching software, and the Postal Service’s change-of-address database.
![Page 32: 1 Move Update November 2008. 2 Move Update Nov. 23, 2008 Move Update is required for mailpieces claiming Presorted or Automation prices for First-Class®](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070411/56649f3d5503460f94c5d25c/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
32
FASTforward® MLOCR
FASTforward hardware and software are interfaced with commercial MLOCR equipment. As automation-compatible mailpieces run through the MLOCR, the names and addresses are checked against the COA information contained in the FASTforward system, and if a COA is applicable, the correct address and barcode are sprayed on the mailpiece.
Using FASTforward MLOCR allows mailers to avoid delays associated with traditional mail forwarding.

34
Legal Restraint Method
Mailers who claim they are restricted from incorporating Postal Service COA information into their mailing lists without permission from the addressees may request approval from the Postal Service’s National Customer Support Center.
![Page 35: 1 Move Update November 2008. 2 Move Update Nov. 23, 2008 Move Update is required for mailpieces claiming Presorted or Automation prices for First-Class®](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070411/56649f3d5503460f94c5d25c/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
35
Legal Restraint Method
Unless the mailer is a federal, state, or local government entity, the request must be accompanied by citation of the specific legal restriction, including copies of the statutes or regulations
Federal, state or local government entities must still make a request, but will receive a letter of approval without having to submit a citation.

38
99% Accuracy Method
Mailers who believe their mailing lists are already accurate because their customers diligently notify them of address changes may meet their Move Update requirements by:
Getting approval from the National Customer Support Center and following a 4 step validation process.
![Page 39: 1 Move Update November 2008. 2 Move Update Nov. 23, 2008 Move Update is required for mailpieces claiming Presorted or Automation prices for First-Class®](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070411/56649f3d5503460f94c5d25c/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
39
99% Accuracy Method
To determine if the mailer has current address information for their customer, the Postal Service evaluates the address list for accuracy.
If less than 1% of the customer addresses in the address list have a change-of-address detected, the mailer is given written approval to use the 99% Method to satisfy the Move Update requirement for the address list tested.
The Postal Service will periodically review the mailing list to determine if it is being kept up-to-date.
