| ReasonableCauseExplanation/ExplanationTxt | 0 | Our organization has a solid track record of filing tax returns on time, without failure. However, we have a process in place in our organization that requires the general coordinator and the treasurer perform a final review of the financials for the previous year before filing for taxes. As our President (General Coordinator) was going through multiple eye surgeries during this time, we could not hold that review meeting on time this year. That is the main reason for missing the May 15 date this year. Going forward, we are considering options to formally add additional members of the community who can act as a backup reviewer of the financials if this type of unavoidable situation occurs in the future. Therefore, we appeal to IRS to waive the penalty associated with this delay |
