how long do i have to file a claim with usps
Thereâs always a question as to who makes the claim: 1  Damaged or lost contents: Either the seller or the buyer can file the claim. 2  Complete loss: When a package has not turned up within 30 days, the seller files the claim. You can file your claim online direct on the USPS site. If you want to make your claim at the Post Office, you must get a copy of PS Form 1000, Domestic Claim or Registered Mail Inquiry. Go to the post office or download it. Fill out the form with all the details required and bring your backup information. To make a damage claim, you must produce evidence of insurance.
