Not in by the deadline (7)

I believe the answer is:

overdue

(Other definitions for overdue that I've seen before include "Belated" , "Beyond the designated time for payment" , "Later than expected" , "Remaining unpaid after the scheduled time" , "after the time specified" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today.
