Sent application via 2 day USPS and NHQ still has no record of reciving my app

[aviator9417]

I sent my application 13 Mar 14 via 2 day shipping. USPS shows the package was received on 15 Mar 14 but I called NHQ and they say that they don't have it yet because USPS ships to Maxwell AFB and not direct to NHQ or something like that.  So according to the person I talked to the AF at Maxwell must give CAP the package.  So now I paid for 2 day shipping to speed things up but instead am now waiting longer than if I used Fedex or UPS....  I am just worried my application got mailed to the wrong place with my personal info and Fingerprints.

Moral of the story is DO NOT USE USPS for sending NHQ anything if you want it to happen fast.

It would have been no different if you used a different shipping method, in fact it might have wound up undeliverable.

Most military bases have consolidated receiving for everything, and then internal mailboxes at some facility where you
pick up the mail.  In other words, delivery drivers do not wander around the base looking for individuals and signatures.

You've confirmed it got where it belongs, beyond that, be patient.

The only way to deliver "stuff" to NHQ direct is to FedEx or UPS it direct to 105 Hansell.  It will get there within  a week depending on what you pay for.  It cost's more than USPS, but it get's there much faster.

Do the physical membership applications get shredded once the info is input into the computer by NHQ?

Your unit is required to maintain a copy with the SSN blacked out. Don't know what NHQ does with their copy.

There isn't anything saying the SSN must be blacked out.  In some cases that is actually impractical, such as units on an installation that requires SSNs for an EAL.  As long as you follow the CAPR 1-2 you're good to go.
