| ReasonableCauseExplanation/ExplanationTxt | 0 | This filling is late due to unforeseen circumstances related to COVID. Members of the organization fell ill with COVID and had family members unfortunately pass with COVID. The time delay in filing was a combination of the illness and the time it takes to file. All of our members are visually impaired and filing a 990 takes additional time due to the process of using a screen reader with inaccessible web content. Thus, once we were able to file, it took time to acquire the documentation and prepare the file. We have a history of filling our tax returns on time and will continue to file them on time in the future. |
