LACS^Link processing is automatically run along with NCOA^Link®. LACS^Link is an automated address conversion service. The 911 emergency program has caused local governments to convert rural route addresses to street style addresses. Because the residents do not actually move when they receive a new address, change of address forms are not filed. The local governments work with the local Post Office™ to update the delivery addresses. The new addresses (address conversions) are forwarded by the local Post Office. These address changes are then compiled to create the LACS^Link database.

The LACS^Link database contains the old rural route address and the new street style address. LACS^Link is also used for street-style to street-style address conversions and street renumbering conversions.

Sample LACS^Link Conversions:
The delivery point (house, building, etc.) remains the same, but the address (name of the street house number, etc) has changed.

RR 5 Box 234	-- >	5471 Apple Orchard Blvd
471 Main St	-- >	473 Main St
987 Edgewater Dr	-- >	987 John Smith Memorial Dr

The LACS^Link database currently contains approximately 5 million address conversions. Per the USPS^®, both the old and new addresses will be deliverable for a period of 12 months at which time mail will only be delivered to the new (converted) address.
