You may want to ask a lawyer (or city official that deals with housing), but my guess is they shouldn't be able to if it was post-marked on the due date.
However, because of stuff like this, it's often recomended that you send payment in at least a few days before the due date, so they have no qualms about "OMG your payment is late, I'm going to charge you extra!" (and I would send it insured, certified, or registered so that if the post office loses your mail, it's their butt on the line, not yours).

On our properties we go by the postmark, because we know how jacked up the mail service is here. We sent out 3-day notices on the 5th once and they were not postmarked until the 8th. Had to virtually loose 3 more days of looking for our $$$ due to postal service.

Your employ could typically comprise the frame of mind of delivery/charge association for the lease. you should adhere to that approach. If the owner has continuously come with the help of contained in the previous to p.c.. it up, and that is your association, he/she will be in a position to't merely substitute it hastily. yet in case you've continuously mailed previous cheques, then you definately won't be able to all of surprising substitute the association both. you should envision inclusive of your state or provincial landlord/tenant authority, and your employ, to work out no matter if it truly is criminal to value you a overdue value. This appears like a petty dispute...i recommend that you do what you could to keep the relationship on reliable words. You under no circumstances recognize once you'll choose a favour with paying the lease some days overdue, or an excellent reference on your next landlord.

Depends on when the post office time stamped the envelope. If the post office processed it before the date it was due, you're fine.
