ReasonableCauseExplanation/ExplanationTxt0Our 990 filing was delayed due to insufficient coverage from our previous accountant, who failed to maintain our books according to the required standards. This oversight resulted in a significant backlog of financial records, making it challenging to prepare accurate and timely reports. To rectify this situation, we promptly hired a highly skilled bookkeeper who diligently brought our financial records up to date. We were able to complete the necessary preparations and submit it as soon as possible. We would like to request an abatement for any late penalties.
