| ReasonableCauseExplanation/ExplanationTxt | 0 | The DFA organization lost both its secretary and treasurer in 2018, and was unable to have full access to its books and records until 2020. The secretary and treasurer had worked with an outside law firm in 2016 and 2017 to file the 990, but neither of the former officers was available to provide assistance to the DFA organization with regard to filing the 2018 or 2019 990. The DFA also expected the secretary or the law firm to file an extension for 2018, but this was not accomplished. The law firm that had assisted DFA with the previous 990s did not assist with the 2018 or 2019 filing, and the deadlines were subsequently missed for both filing periods. |
