CASS Error (CASSE)

Code	Description
C	Canadian Postal Code
C-D	The Zip Code matches the format characteristics of a Canadian Postal Code.
M	Multiple Matches
M-D	More than one record matches the address and there is not enough information available in the input address to break the tie between multiple records. Passing more complete information, such as city names or urbanization names, can help reduce the number of multiple match errors.
N	No Street Data for Zip
N-D	The Zip Code exists but no streets begin with the same letter in that Zip Code.
R	Range Error
R-D	The address was found but the street number in the input address was not between the low and high range in the CASS database.
T	Component Error
T-D	Either the directionals or the suffix field did not match the CASS database, and there was more than one choice for correcting the address. For example, if the given address was “100 Main St” and the only addresses found were “100 E Main St” and 100 Main Ave” the error code “T” would be returned because we do not know whether to add the directional “E” or to change the suffix to “Ave”.
U	Unknown Street
U-D	An exact street name match could not be found and phonetically matching the street name resulted in either no matches or matches to more than one street name.

W-D	The Zip Code was found in the Early Warning System Data. These are new addresses scheduled to be included in the next USPS national database.
X	Non-Deliverable Address

Z	Invalid Zip Code
Z-D	The Zip Code does not exist and could not be determined by the city and state.

CASS Status - Deprecated (CASS)

02	Moved Left No Address
02-D	The input record matched to a business, individual or family type master file record and the new address was not provided to USPS.
03	Box Closed No Order (BCNO)
03-D	The Input record matched to a business, individual or family type master file record which contains an old address of PO BOX that has been closed without a forwarding address provided.
04	Street Address with Secondary
04-D	In the STANDARD mode utilizing Family matching logic the input record matched to a family record type on the master file with an old address that contained secondary information which obtained a ZIP+4 street level match. The input record does not contain secondary information. This address match situation requires individual name matching logic to obtain a match and individual names do not match.
05	New 11-digit DPBC is Ambiguous
05-D	The input record matched to a business, individual or family type master file record. The new address on the master file record could not be converted to a deliverable address because the DPBC represents more than one delivery point.
06	Conflicting Directions: Middle Name Related
06-D	There is more than one COA (individual or family type) record for the match algorithm and the middle names or initials on the COAs are different. Therefore, a single match result could not be determined.
07	Conflicting Directions: Gender Related
07-D	There is more than one COA (individual or family type) record for the match algorithm and the genders of the names on the COAs are different. Therefore, a single match result could not be determined.
08	Other Conflicting Instructions
08-D	The input record matched to two master file (business, individual or family type) records. The two records in the master file were compared and due to differences in the new addresses, a match could not be made.
09	High-rise Default
09-D	The input record matched to a family record on the master file from a High-rise address ZIP+4 coded to the building default. This address match situation requires individual name matching logic to obtain a match and individual names do not match.
10	Rural Default
10-D	The input record matched to a family record on the master file from a Rural Route or Highway Contract Route address ZIP+4 coded to the route default. This address situation requires individual name matching logic to obtain a match and individual names do not match.
11	Insufficient COA Name for Match
11-D	There is a master file (individual or family type) record with the same surname and address but there is insufficient name information on the master file record to produce a match using individual matching logic.
12	Middle Name Test Failed
12-D	The input record matched to an individual or family record on the master file with the same address and surname. However, a match cannot be made because the input name contains a conflict with the middle name or initials on the master file record.
13	Gender Test Failed
13-D	The input record matched to a master file (individual or family type) record. A match cannot be made because the gender of the name on the input record conflicts with the gender of the name on the master file record.
14	New Address Would Not Convert
14-D	The input record matched to a master file (business, individual or family type) record. The new address could not be converted to a deliverable address.
15	Individual Name Insufficient
15-D	There is a master file record with the same address and surname. A match cannot be made because the input record does not contain a first name or contains initials only.
16	Secondary Number Discrepancy
16-D	The input record matched to a street level individual or family type record. However, a match is prohibited based on I of the following reasons: 1) There is conflicting secondary information on the input and master file record; 2) the input record contained secondary information and matched to a family record that does not contain secondary information. In item 2, this address match situation requires individual name matching logic to obtain a COA match and individual names do not match.
17	Other Insufficient Name
17-D	The input record matched to an individual or family master file record. The input name is different or not sufficient enough to produce a match.
18	General Delivery
18-D	The input record matched to a family record on the master file from a General Delivery address. This address situation requires individual name matching logic to obtain a match and individual names do not match.
19	New Address not ZIP + 4 coded or DPV confirmed.
19-D	There is a change of address on file but the new address cannot be ZIP + 4 coded and therefore there is no 11-digit DPBC to store or return, the new address primary number cannot be confirmed on DPV or the new address is temporary.
20	Conflicting Directions after re-chaining
20-D	Multiple master file records were potential matches for the input record. The master file records contained different new addresses and a single match result could not be determined.
66	Daily Delete
66-D	The input record matched to a business, individual or family type master file record with an old address that is present in the daily delete file. The presence of an address in the daily delete file means that a COA with this address is pending deletion from the master file and that no mail may be forwarded from this address.
77	ANKLink Primary Return Code
77-D	Indicates that ANKlink has provided the move date, but not address, for a move that occurred between 19 and 48 months ago.
91	Secondary Number dropped from COA
91-D	The input record matched to a master file record. The master file record had a secondary number and the input address did not. Please Note: This return code is derived from Individual matching logic only. If this return code is achieved then no other matching attempts are permitted regardless of the PROCESSING mode.
92	Secondary Number Dropped from input address
92-D	The input record matched to a master file record, but the input address had a secondary number and the master file record did not. The record is a ZIP + 4 street level match. Please Note: This return code is derived from individual matching logic only. If this return code is achieved then no other matching attempts are permitted regardless of the PROCESSING mode.
