ReasonableCauseExplanation/ExplanationTxt0November 17, 2025 Internal Revenue Service Attn: EO Accounts Unit 1973 N. Rulon White Blvd., Mail Stop 6552 Ogden, UT 84201 RE: PENALTY ABATEMENT REQUEST Taxpayer: SIST Inc. EIN: 47-3174373 Tax Form: 990 Tax Period: December 31, 2024 To Whom it May Concern: We represent SIST Inc. ("Organization"). Form 990 for the year ended December 31, 2024 is being filed late due to an administrative error by the tax preparer. An extension for the Form 990 filing was mistakenly not submitted. It was not discovered until close to what was thought to be the extended due date that the extension had not been submitted. For the reasons stated within, Organization respectfully requests abatement of any assessed penalties including failure to file timely. Organization is a 501(c)(3) public school. A penalty of this magnitude would cause an extreme financial hardship and harm the community it seeks to assist. The Organization's operations would certainly be negatively impacted. Organization has met the reasonable cause standard by demonstrating it exercised ordinary business care and prudence, therefore qualifies for abatement of penalty. Treas. Reg. 301.6652-1(f), Showing of reasonable cause states, "The amount imposed by subsection (a), (b), or (c) of section 6652 shall not apply with respect to a failure to file a statement within the time prescribed if it is established to the satisfaction of the district director or the director of the Internal Revenue Service Center that such failure was due to reasonable cause and not to willful neglect." In addition, IRM 20.1.1.3.2.1 Standards and Authorities cites, "Any reason that establishes a taxpayer exercised ordinary business care and prudence but nevertheless failed to comply with the tax law may be considered for penalty relief." Further, IRM 20.1.1.3.2.2 Ordinary Business Care and Prudence discusses that, "A taxpayer may establish reasonable cause by providing facts and circumstances showing that he or she exercised ordinary business care and prudence (taking that degree of care that a reasonably prudent person would exercise), but nevertheless were unable to comply with the law." The failure to file the December 31, 2024 Form 990 in a timely manner was due to an inadvertent error by the Organization's accountant. Organization has consistently engaged a professional tax preparer to file its required federal returns. Historically, Organization has timely filed its Form 990 by the extended due date. Organization acted in good faith, as well as in a responsible manner relative to Form 990 by filing the return with the IRS as soon it became aware that the extension had not been filed and to make sure to file by what would have been the extended due date. The late filing was not intentional or due to willful neglect, nor was there any deliberate attempt to disregard the rules and regulations of the filing requirement; it was simply an inadvertent error. Further, IRM 20.1.1.2 Purpose of Penalties states, "Penalties exist to encourage voluntary compliance by supporting the standards of behavior required by the Internal Revenue Code. For most taxpayers, voluntary compliance consists of preparing an accurate return, filing it timely, and paying any tax due. Efforts made to fulfill these obligations constitute compliant behavior." Organization made every effort to timely file its return. Organization is historically compliant in its tax obligations and has satisfied the requirement for reasonable cause by confirming it acted in a prudent and reasonable manner and was neither willful nor neglectful. Organization respectfully requests that any penalties assessed by the IRS for the December 31, 2024 Form 990 be abated. I am submitting this on behalf of Organization and I have conveyed the facts stated in this correspondence as told to me including any accompanying documents and to the best of my knowledge and belief they are true, correct and complete. Thank you for your consideration. If you require further i
