Assistance with the Postal Service

Return to Assistance  

If you are having a problem with an issue relating to the United States Postal Service (USPS), my office may be able to help.

Some examples of problems my office may be able to help resolve are: concerns with mail delivery, customer service, employment with the USPS, and a variety of other issues. If you have an unresolved issue with the USPS or your local post office, we can contact the Southeast Michigan District Performance Cluster of the Detroit District Performance Cluster on your behalf, depending on where you reside.

In order for my office to make an inquiry with USPS, you must first fill out the privacy release form authorizing myself or my staff to receive information on your behalf. You can access a Privacy Release Form online, or by contacting my district office, if you would like it mailed to you. Once you have filled out the privacy release form, you can mail, fax, or drop it off to my district office in Roseville:
