When to use Certified Mail
I'm a little foggy on when you must, or should, use Certified Mail with return receipt to correspond with a taxpayer.
At present, my understanding is that you must use it when you hold a Certificate and wish to start the 6 month evictment eligibility clock.
However, I deal mostly with deeds and it's not clear that I need to use CM w/RR at all. Thoughts?

@Arnold Finkelstein, the ONLY time a CMRRR letter is REQUIRED is when you are sending notice letters to lienholders about the tax sale, to run out their one year to redeem (or three years administrative, whichever is longer.) All other times it is sometimes advisable to send letters by regular and certified mail, but it is not required.
