No, according to sneaky credit card companies, it is the posting date. It is funny how a payment mailed over a week ago isn't posted before after the due date.
If you are stuck with a late payment, dispute it. |

No the payment must be received and posted to your account by the due date or it's technically late. |

Absolutely not. If you read the terms of your credit statement, you will see it reads that the payment has to be in their possession by a certain time on the day it is due, which is usually 2:00pm in order to process it that day. |

Not any more. Now it is the 'processed by' date. Some places say the payment has to be received 1 or 2 days before the due date so they can process it in time. Not fair in my opinion, but what can you do? |

It's when it's received because most payments go to a lock box and then posted to the account. |

That depends on what kind of payment you ae talking about. If it is a tax payment, the Post Office Department is an agency of the US government and the Federal income tax would paid when it was delivered to their agent. The question is who selected the US mail as their agent? You probably did. Then, if they are your agent, the money is paid when it is delivered. |

No, receipt of the funds is what matters. Certain revenue or application type documents have a deadline and may elect to state "postemarked by" on the rules thereof. IRS is one common example. |

I'm sure that's up to the individual organization. Some will give you a grace period beyond the stated due date, while others will not. |
