If I have an in town move (a couple of blocks) how many days will my mail be delayed when being forwarded?

Question

We just found out that my husband's paycheck was mailed to our old address, and should have been there on Monday. It is now Wednesday and still no check at our new address. How long does it typically take for a local move for your mail to get here? Thanks so much!

Answer 1

usually 10-14 days even if it's just going down the street. Sucks doesn't it. I moved from one city to the same city and my mail got sent from that city to the city capitol 3 hours away, rerouted and back to me in 10-12 days.. so,  expect a wait.
