I need to mail a document to a Post Office box in the USA and have it delivered in a few days.

 

LBC has fast delivery but only to street addresses, not PO boxes.

 

Does anyone know if Fedex, UPS, or another company delivers to PO boxes?

Philippine Postal Service. 900 plus pesos but it gets there in 7-9 days. You even get a USPS tracking #.

On October 28, 2013 the United States Office of Personnel Management mailed a letter to me concerning my retirement using the US Postal Service. When it reached the Philippines it was handed over to the Philippines Postal Service known as PhilPost. I finally received the letter today on December 18 which is 51 days after it was mailed.

 

It has been my experience that PhilPost is very slow and not reliable. Most mail delivered to me which came through PhilPost was delivered in one month to 6 weeks. And, the tracking number that PhilPost provides only tracks the mail until it reaches Manila. I was using their website last night to track two letters I mailed at my local PhilPost and no tracking information was available after they left the Philippines.

 

The bad part is they said I must reply to their letter within 30 days from the date on their letter which is impossible when you live in the Philippines. It was 51 days before I received the letter.

Yes you're right. Incoming to RP sucks big time. But outgoing to the US is 7-9 days. I know...messed up. But, It's more pun in da Philippines.....

Steve,

 

I have been searching on the Internet for hours and I can't find where any company says they ship to a PO Box address in the USA. Looks like I will have to try your suggestion. I just hope the person receiving my very late reply will be understanding and have compassion. My survivor's annuity depends on my reply.

This is why you need a US address at a mail forwarding company that can open and scan your mail so you can view your mail online via the internet.

If you receive a document for which you need a hard copy just download the pdf of the scanned document and print it out.

When I get forms that need original signatures like the "proof of life" from SS, I send it LBC to a trusted friend in the US and he forwards it. If they don't get the reply in 60 days they cut off benefits and it takes about a month to get here.
