Payments are considered timely if:

- Postmarked by the US Post Office by 11:59 P.M. on or before the due date, or
- Cash register receipt/Treasury date stamp received in person by 5:00 P.M. on or before the due date.

At the expiration of the seven-calendar-day grace period, the penalty will be added."
