Important change from USPS:

As of Dec 24, 2025, postmarks reflect the date mail is processed, not when it's sent.

If you're handling time-sensitive documents, this could create delays.

Best practices:
• Ask for a manual postmark
• Use trackable mailing options
• Use online filing whenever possible
