ReasonableCauseExplanation/ExplanationTxt0South Carolina Gamma is hoping you will consider an abatement of any penalties or any late fees that may be assessed due to "reasonable cause" with the late filing of our 2023 tax form 990-EZ. We acknowledge and sincerely apologize for the late filing of our Chapter's tax Form 990-EZ. The South Carolina Gamma Chapter of the Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity is a tax-exempt organization operating under Internal Revenue Code Section 501c7. We are a college fraternity supported by dues paying members to provide an opportunity for members to commingle, pursue common goals, and aspirations. Personally, I am currently the Treasurer for the fraternity, and I am responsible for the ultimate filing of the tax Form 990. The governance responsibilities of a college fraternity can be fluid due to officers being in transition annually due to graduation from school. This coupled with the school and fraternity challenges resulting from the Covid pandemic, the new electronic filing requirement, I believe, primarily led to the inadvertent late filing oversight on our part. I took corrective action (completion/filing the tax return) as soon as I became aware of the 990 filing requirements. Unfortunately, such corrective action was also protracted since the Chapter had to familiarize itself with the detailed Form 990 informational filing requirements, aligning our historical financial information with the 990 requirements, along with an associated search for a Certified Professional Accountant (CPA) for tax return preparation/assistance. Going forward, South Carolina Gamma intends to comply with all Form 990 filing requirements. In addition, I have designed procedures to ensure that future officer transition will include the Form 990 filing requirements and associated completion procedures. Again, our Chapter sincerely apologizes and hope that you will consider the abatement of the penalties that may be assessed for "reasonable cause". I am willing to provide any clarifications that you may require. Sincerely, Jackson Tysinger, Treasurer, South Carolina Gamma Chapter of the the Sigma Alpha Epsilon Fraternity.
