Confirmation of Mailing provides evidence that you have mailed a letter to a tenant using the US Postal Service. The evidence provided contains details, dates, and data on when the mail was sent. It is paired with a time-stamped, tamper-evident PDF facsimile of the mailed document and any relevant supplemental USPS documentation. 

Confirmation of Mailing and Certificate of Mailing differ in that Certificate of Mailing provides proof of delivery, while Confirmation of Mailing simply shows that it was sent. Read our article on Certificate of Mailing for more information.
