“The original 990-EZ was filed August 30 2021 by our then treasurer, Emil Yappert. After Emil was no longer treasurer, We receoved a ;etter from the IRS dated May 2 2022 that the 2020-21 990 EZ for our organization was being returned becaise 'schedule B was not included'. In fact Box H on the 990-EZ had been inavertantly unchecked. In fact, it should have been checked and thus no schedule B was actually required. I, as current treasurer, carol McCasland, sent the form back as a paper copy with the box checked. I thought that would have been the end of it. I was out of the country from June 24-July 22 2022. When I returned from my trip, there was a letter from the IRS that vaguely stated that the IRS did not accept paper copies any more, but did not explicitly state that our return was in fact 'gone'. I called the IRS on August 7 2022 and got the bad news that the e-filing for 2020-21 was not there. I guess the IRS just dumps it when they return it for correction. This is a corrected copy.”
