USPS Postmark Rule Changes Could Affect Important Mail Deadlines

TL;DR Summary
The USPS has changed its postmarking process to reflect when mail is processed rather than when it is dropped off, potentially affecting deadline-sensitive mail like tax returns and ballots. To ensure timely delivery, senders are advised to use in-person mailing options, request manual postmarks, or opt for online submissions when possible. This change aims to streamline operations but may cause delays in meeting deadlines.
