The letter which I am expected/supposed to sign and send it back to you after making payment.

The letter which I am expected to sign and send back to you after making payment . ===> does it mean " You should do so now or soon . " ?

What about this sentence >>

The letter which has to be signed and send back to you along with copy of the Receipt Payment but unfortunately it has been delayed due to X problem

You misunderstand me. It is the ‘supposed to have’ in the first example above which indicates that you should so it now if you haven’t already done so. ‘Supposed’ doesn’t give any indication of time.

There is no indication of how soon you have to sign and send the letter in this sentence. Only that it should not be done before payment has been received.

The letter which has to be signed and send back to you, along with a copy of the Receipt of Payment, has unfortunately been delayed due to X problem.

Suppose somebody sent an email to me like that

Dear samy

Could you please let me know if you received the Offer Letter?

Thank you
Kind regards,

Now in this situation I need to answer to confirm that I receive it through e-mail on 26 April 2011; I already know when to sign and send it back to him/her for example before June (it should be done together signing the letter and making payment ) but it has been delayed due to some problem and postponed to later date , I want to explain him/her why it has been delayed so do I need to use “ I am supposed to …… “ and emphasize that I know its procedure rather I want to tell him/her that I didn’t forget it

Please take a look at this sample letter
