QuestionDoes registered mail have to be signed for by the recipient?Community AnswerYes. Registered Mail IS required to be signed for. When they deliver it to the customer, they verify their ID as well as get their signature. If you want something that does not have to be signed for, then you can do Delivery Confirmation (best for packages), or even send it as Certified Mail (best for envelopes) and request a signature waiver.

QuestionI have a summons for jury duty, but I also have a doctor's note. So how do I send this to make sure it gets to the right person?Emma MCommunity AnswerOn your summons, there should be a number to call for questions and issues or medical releases (besides the one you call that tells when to show up). Call the number and let them know you have a doctor's release and need a fax number to send it. Get the name of the person in charge of jury duty and put it to their attention. The person you speak to should also give you that information. If there is no number to call on your letter except the number to tell you when you go in, then call that number and see if there is a number to push to get the correct department. A 30-day postponement can be given until that doctor's note is received. But there is a limit on how many times you can have a postponement.
