For first time applications you MUST SUBMIT IN PERSON so you can't just mail it all in directly yourself... you have to go in person to an agent like USPS or Library or City Hall.

You're right. But, I am not sure that library sends your package in the same day.

However, since you are already at USPS, it's more likely that your package is going to be sent immediately.

Am I right?

I applied for mine at the local library before noon and judging by the timing, It was sent out the same day!

I would trust the person at the library to be more careful and pay more attention. If you are paying for expedite then they would be obligated to take it to the post office I guess.

I did mine through the clerk of court office at the title bureau. That would have been similar to dealing with a library. They got mine out right away.
