What happens if USPS says delivered?

Please wait another business day, as the package could have been marked as delivered by mistake, and will arrive the following day. Contact your local USPS post office. Make sure you contact your LOCAL post office, and not the USPS hotline. If the package still does not show up, please call USPS to file a claim.

Why is my USPS tracking number not working?

If your tracking number doesn’t work or has errors, it could be that your shipping hasn’t been picked up yet by the courier or the courier has not scanned it as received. Please allow up to 24 hours for your tracking number to be logged by the shipping courier.
