VERIFY YOUR ROSTER CONTENT
IS UP-TO-DATE
It is that
time of year again when every member needs to verify
that their contact information (email address, phone,
mailing address, spouse information, etc) is up-to-date
on the national roster. This information is the main
source of information for the squadron, district, and
National Rosters. The deadline for your OD-1 and OD-2
submissions is Feb 1 each year and it is up to each
member to ensure their information current as no one
knows your information like you do.
To verify, you can ask your
DB2000 chair to check, or you can follow the steps below
to verify by using the national website. Whichever
method you use is fine, but it is best to follow-up to
verify it made it.
Also, if you change any part
of your contact information throughout the year in
between roster printing, you will need to contact those
individuals that use your information to let them know.
There is not an automatic way for anyone to be notified
of your changes. Suggestion: In your email program, add
a "signature" that will be included automatically on
every email you send that states what the change is. For
example, I added "Please note that my email address
changed to
chasselr@comcast.net
on Dec 10 2012. Please update your information."
To verify using the website:
1. Go to
www.usps.org.
2. Choose the "How Do I..."
link a the top of the page.
3. From the list, click on
"Update my personal data online".
4. If you are not logged
into the website, you will be asked to Login.
5. Once Logged in, you will
see a form with your primary personal contact
information that is stored in the database.
6. Make changes as necessary
and click on "Submit All Changes" or Click on "Cancel No
Changes Necessary".
Please remember that the
national database is only good to everyone if everyone
is keeping their own information up-to-date.
A step-by-step process
document can be found on the website at
http://www.usps.org/cgi-bin-nat/tools/myprofile.cgi
or in the SailAngle File Cabinet for this group - USPS
National Group.
If you have any questions,
please contact us the help desk (help@usps.org).
Hope to see you all in
Jacksonville! It will be the meeting you will not want
to miss as there are alot of interesting sessions and
seminars going on!
