Public Notice – Avoid Missed Deadlines – New USPS Postmark Process
As of December 24, 2025, the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) changed how postmarks are applied. Postmarks now come from automated processing facilities and may not reflect the date or location where your mail was accepted. This means the postmark date could be later than the day you mailed your item, which may impact time-sensitive deadlines – including property tax payments.
To avoid missed deadlines for real property tax payments:
- Mail early
- Request a free local postmark at a Post Office counter
