« on: December 13, 2013, 01:27:20 AM »
just moved into a house that was just finished being built. i tried to order something from amazon but it says that it is not a valid address. how can i find out if it is being validated and when it can be used.

Your local post office probably.  I assume the builder has to file a new address with them. 
My favorite cause: cssy.org

How could USPS let you forward mail to a non existent address?

That is why I am hoping that the USPS has it on file but nowhere else does.

Go to USPS.com and put in your address. See if it comes up with a zip+4.
Only on DDF does 24/6 mean 24/5/half/half

that's good - otherwise an neighbor's address is good for a few days --
would help with multiple SPG points if it's ever needed....
