Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Texas
mortgage payment date
Since I am retired, my pension and SocialSecurity payments are received at the end or beginning of each month, which causes some problem in the timing of my mortgage payment. which is due on the first of the month. I mail my payment to the mortgage company usually a week before the due date. May I date the check on the first and be within legal payment terms?

Re: mortgage payment date
The date on the check doesn't count. It's when it arrives and whether it bounces or not.
Speak to the mortgage company about the problem and see if they'll change the due date.
