Inside it says that I must reply within 10 days if there are any changes to my info. Failure to do so could result in the cancellation of a medical supplies grant.
Fortunately, the info is correct, but holy hell, I can’t imagine the BS that someone would have to go through if they “failed” to reply because of this delay.
Is the postage dated? Like when the letter was actually processed by the mail service? Also does the text say ‘within 10 days of receipt’?
The letter is dated from March, but the printed stamp on the envelope is from a few days ago. LOL
“You are required to inform us within 10 days, at the above address if you change your address or Bank Account Number.” etc…
Ah, well if the scenario ever occurs that you DID need to make a change you can likely use the postage date but its good that you dont have to deal with that this time!
IDK about other countries, but they NEVER do that here. (Denmark)
Although the point is moot now, because we get all official mail in an official internet mailbox with enhanced security. So send and receipt are generally identical. We also have the option to get notified by e-mail or SMS when anything official arrives.
Here in Belgium, if it’s by physical mail, the delay is legally defined.
e.g. Resigning by signed letter is assumed to arrive 3 business days after you send it off. Regular mail requires 3 attempts (e.g. bill + 2 reminders) before it’s reasonable assumption it arrived at all.
But then again, if you wonna change highway lanes with a broken blinker, it’s perfectly legal to stick your arm out the window, so maybe some laws just aren’t up to date here.
