Due to Covid-19 is there a forgiveness in filing lien 08/31/21 and it should have been a few days prior to that?

CaliforniaLien Deadlines

We are a subcontractor. The customer has not paid for two invoices, but all of the others were paid for. Due to Covid-19 we could not walk in to file the lien, and because we rarely file liens, we did not know that is how San Bernardino County was handling their lien filing. (By appointment only). We had to find an approved company, to do it over the internet, to expedite this, which is how we found the Levelset.com company. This webpage says we filed late. But our documents went to Levelset the same day we signed up. They took a couple of days to mail out the lien for recording. It has a date of 08/31/2021 (stamped). Our last day on the job was, 05/26/2021. (5 +30+31+19 = 85 days. We should have had 5 day grace period still available to file.
