On November 19, the Postal Service filed its Fiscal Year 2026 Integrated Financial Plan with the Postal Regulatory Commission. The agency stated that “The FY 2026 IFP document is based on the FY 2026 IFP approved by the Board of Governors of the Postal Service. The FY 2025 data reflected in this report are final audited results that are reported in the Postal Service’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.”
