Mailing Instructions

US Postal Service

If you will be using the US Postal Service to mail something to us, YOU MUST USE OUR PO BOX. The postal service will not deliver mail to our street address. If you send us a letter to our street address via the USPS it may take weeks to get to us, or it may never arrive.

Invoices are processed based on the postmarked date. The U.S. Postal Service has implemented a nationwide change affecting when postmarks are applied to mail. Unless a customer requests a postmark at a Postal Service retail location, postmarks are no longer added when mail is first received. Instead, they are stamped later during sorting and processing at regional distribution centers. As a result, mail may be postmarked several days after being dropped into a mailbox. To avoid delays and accruing late fees, TCFP recommends visiting a Postal Service retail location and requesting a postmark stamp when mailing a payment with an invoice.
