Mirixa: Changes to Due Date Methodology at Mirixa

In the past, Mirixa has been able to process case extension requests up to the final due date, assuming the program supported and allowed such extensions. Many of our current programs are very time-specific and this requires that we must implement a new 48-hour-prior-to-due-date request window in order to properly process an extension. As an example, if the case is due to expire on 2/28/16, you would need to call our support desk no later than 5:30PM EST on 2/26/16.
