Income Tax Procrastinators Will Have Limited Access to Late Night Mailing
Income tax procrastinators need to be aware that there will be limited availability for mailing those last-minute tax forms on Income Tax Day, which falls on Monday, April 18, this year.
Post Offices in Lee and Collier counties will NOT have extended hours of operation.

The outside blue collection boxes there will have a last pickup at midnight.
The following postal locations will have Automated Postal Centers staffed with assistance provided until 7:00 p.m. to purchase postage and certified mail service using a debit or credit card:
