Notes

For output field RESULT, it will either be VALID, or an address classification and series of three character codes indicating the status of individual address components. Each code will be a two-digit numeric that identify the address component plus one character status indicator. There can be many of these three character codes.

For example a RESULT of C17M indicates:

• C = Invalid Correctable Address
• 17M = The Suite Identifier is missing

Another example, a RESULT of N10I11I62M indicates:

• N = Invalid Non-Correctable Address
• 10I = Complete street information is Inconsistent/Incorrect
• 11I = Civic Number is Inconsistent/Incorrect
• 62M = Province is Missing
