Quick Reference Guide for Ease in Application Entry

The following is a list of helpful address information/tips:

1. Do not use punctuation of any kind for addresses or city fields.
2. Do not spell out a numeric value, such as fourth. (Example, Fourth St should be 4th St)
3. Common street suffixes are:

Avenue	AVE	x	Boulevard	BLVD	x	Circle	CIR
Court	CT		Drive	DR		Lane	LN
Parkway	PKY		Street	ST		Trail	TRL

4. Directional information for delivery should be entered abbreviated as: North (N), South (S), East (E) and West (W).
5. The correct format for Rural Route is RR 2 Box 152; do not use the words Rural, Number, No, or the pound sign (#).
6. Post Office Box address should be output as PO Box (such as PO Box 11890).
7. Do not abbreviate a city’s name (i.e. Fort Wayne should not be entered as Ft. Wayne rather be spelled out). Indianapolis must be spelled out, no abbreviations are acceptable.
