Released February 2011

New Result Codes

Fix country code handling
  • Address Verifier will now label an address as foreign is it has a legitimate country code that is not "US" or "CA".
Updated Congressional information
  • Now it will return the 112th congress information.


Released October 2010

  • By popular demand and the upcoming midterm Congressional Elections, we have added a new field called "CongressionalDisctrict" to the Output Properties of the Response. This element contains the 2-digit number indicating the congressional district of the input address.
Warnings
  • For users of the SOAP protocol, a few languages/toolkits may re-download and re-verify the WSDL with each request. The addition of a new element in the schema may cause some applications using these languages to stop working correctly. To remedy, recompile your application using the new WSDL, or more commonly, reference a local copy of the WSDL instead.
