Dear dawngilbreath:

Greetings. No, I don’t believe a letter from the post office will suffice, but that would be an interesting question in court. I believe the letter would he hearsay, but the court may allow it. The best choice, when you cannot prove service, is to try again. This time, serve him by Sheriff **OR** get him to sign an acceptance of service (we have a copy of one on our website). Thank you.

Good Morning~

I have tried now twice to no avail to serve my estranged husband with papers via certified mail. He is getting them, and signing for them, but I am not receiving the green card back. The post office has sent me a letter stating it was delivered with a scanned signature on their letterhead, is this good enough to attach to the affidavit?[?]
