About this listen

A recent change in U.S. Postal Service postmarking procedures could create unexpected problems for anyone mailing time-sensitive documents to the IRS.

In this episode of Information Return Intelligence, we explain why dropping your Forms 1099 in the mail before the final pickup time may no longer guarantee a same-day postmark — and why that matters for meeting IRS filing deadlines.

You'll learn:

  • What changed in the USPS postmarking process and why postmarks may be delayed.
  • How the change could affect the timely filing of paper Forms 1099 and other tax documents.
  • How to protect yourself by requesting a postmark at the post office counter and using certified mail.
  • Why electronic filing avoids these mailing concerns, and how filing deadlines apply to electronic submissions.

Whether you still file Forms 1099 on paper or have transitioned to electronic filing, this episode offers practical guidance for avoiding preventable late-filing problems.
