Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Your return is filed timely as long as the postmark is timely.  It doesn't matter how long it takes for the mail to get there, just that the postmark is before the due date.  

 

Per the IRS:

Your return is considered filed on time if the envelope is properly addressed, postmarked, and deposited in the mail by the due date.
