Security after the closing date will not be considered unless it was

dated shipping label, invoice, or receipt from a commercial carrier. A 
private metered postmark will not be considered as proof of mailing.

relying on this method, the applicant should check with its local post 
office.)

delivery service, the application should be delivered to: 
Transportation Security Administration Headquarters, Office of Maritime

date.
