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.
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.
