[quote=Anonymous]We purchased our first house in 2014. Previously, a woman living here had a number of tenants in the basement. We get mail for those other residents from time to time, but it’s mostly marketing mail. We write “moved - not at this address” and put it back in the mail.

However, one family still receives official mail here — mail about DC Link, DC benefits, lots of mail that I gather is related to special support services at a DCPS school, even bills for ambulance rides and hospital visits. I’ve marked it for years as “moved - not at this address” and still it comes.

I have another stack of tax documents from the city here for this family.

My questions:
* Are there any implications for us about this festering problem?
* Do folks thing this is accidental, or is the family trying to deceive the city? I don’t see the benefit unless maybe they live in MD. The child doesn’t go to a school zoned for our house. The only thing that gives me pause are the health care bills, but it could be that MedStar is using an old address on file.
* Is there anything else I should be doing to fix this issue? Or just ignore it? Admittedly, it’s a big pain to go through the mail and mark and return it — it’s about 50% of our mail.

I’m not wanting to get anyone in trouble — I just want for the endless mail to stop and to not have to feel guilty over all the seemingly important documents they get at our address.[/quote]
