  • “The rule clarifies that the date displayed on a machine-applied postmark represents the ‘date of the first automated processing operation’ performed at a processing facility, rather than the date the mail was dropped off.”

    🤔 Isn’t that the way it always worked?

    If I go take a card right now, after hours on a Wednesday night, and put it in a blue mailbox, it’s not going to get picked up tomorrow because it’s a holiday.

    It would get picked up and processed on the next mail service day which is Friday, which would be the post mark date, even though it was placed for delivery Wednesday.
