Context
I sent my 709 gift tax return to the address below via certified mail from CA on March 31st which was expected to reach on April 5th as per USPS. But USPS tracking still shows my original city in CA where I mailed from. USPS agent suggested on phone that I re-send and that they can only open the case on April 8th (tomorrow) as they have to wait for 7 days.

Questions:
1. Should or should I not send another copy similar to last year? (as I had the same issue and had sent another copy with covering letter explaining why I am sending the 2nd copy along with the USPS case enclosed, etc. The 2nd one reached faster and the 1st one reached after that. )
2. Please advise what happens if 2 copies of 709 form reach IRS for the same year. (I am thinking of sending the 2nd copy via UPS or Fedex to the PDS address: Internal Revenue Service, 333 W. Pershing Road, Kansas City, MO 64108).
3. When should I send the 2nd copy ? Today (Monday) or only after the USPS case is opened? I understand it should reach before April 15th.
