Question: When Should I Send My Trustee Payments?

[lillymarlene]

After waiting for 7 months I just received a letter that my plan has finally been confirmed!

But now I have a question about when I should make the payments. I have been sending them in by the end of each month, and then by the 5th, my payment is posted on the 13datacenter. This letter states that "payments shall continue through the completion of the Plan and shall be made on the 1st day of each month..."

Does this mean, like a credit card, the payment should be on the trustee's desk and posted by the 1st? Or that the envelope is postmarked by the first?

I'd send it at least 5 days before date due. My plan offers bank draft on 20th of month, it's free and its on time every month.

Mayo, thanks. I'll send mine tomorrow Prioritiy, because of the holiday. My bank allows one free draft daily.

In the trustee's hand by the due date.
