Demand Letter Deadline Calculator accuracy and testing
This page documents how Calwarden builds trust for this calculator: source notes, regression-style default tests, limitations, assumptions, unit handling, rounding, and visible change history.
Formula source
- Estimated receipt date = letter date + user-entered delivery delay days. Estimated response deadline = estimated receipt date + user-entered response period days + manual closure days when included, counted as calendar days or business days, then optionally adjusted for weekends. Reminder date = response deadline - reminder buffer days.
