| ReasonableCauseExplanation/Explanation | 0 | PKPWA is run by volunteers that donate their time to further the education of young men in hopes that they can receive the similar collegiate and work opportunities their brothers before them have received. From time to time, as the officers change, tax expertise may be lost entirely. In 2009 (and until recently), the treasurer position for PKPWA was filled by an officer that, while a CPA, lacked the technical capabilities to understand the tax filing requirements. The treasurer is in charge of not only paying regular bills and expenses, but also ensuring compliance with IRS filing requirements. During regularly scheduled monthly board meetings, this officer lead the board to believe that 990s and other tax filings were made on time and were up to date. Trust was placed in this officer and given that the officer was a CPA, the board did not question his responses and was surprised to learn of the delinquent or incomplete filings as identified in the IRS's recent correspondence. Once the board became aware of the IRS levy for the FY 2009 return and the missing subsequent returns, the board attempted to find out from the treasurer what happened and determine how to get compliant. After countless attempts to contact the previous treasurer for information the board terminated the previous treasurer from his position and took steps to comply with the notice and remediate any outstanding filings. PKPWA respectfully requests that the penalties be abated for the following reasons: 1) The previous treasurer failed to perform his duties while leading the other officers to believe that he was in fact compliant with all of his duties, including in particular those relating to the filing of Form 990. 2) The fine will affect current members of the organization when nearly all of them were not enrolled in university studies in 2009, and all of whom ultimately rely on the board treasurer to competently and properly perform his duties. 3) Once PKPWA understood the extent of the missed filings, PKPWA immediately terminated the previous treasurer, requested counsel from a CPA (Jeffrey Thompson) and attorney (James Boyle), contacted the assigned agent, and undertook plans to remediate all outstanding informational return / file extensions within two (2) weeks of contact between PKPWA and the agent. 5) PKPWA has replaced the previous treasurer with William Kerechek (CPA at PwC), and has taken steps to ensure that this situation does not arise again. Specifically, the monthly board meetings require all members to comment on the status of filings and note all deadlines and steps being completed to ensure a similar situation does not arise, with board oversight and approval of filings prior to submission of same. According to the Internal Revenue Manual, the main purpose of the IRS's policy of asserting penalties is to "encourage voluntary compliance by supporting the standards of behavior expected by the Internal Revenue Code" and justly penalizing the noncompliant taxpayer. "Penalties support the Service's mission only if they enhance voluntary compliance." The Service has formalized this obligation to the public in its Penalty Policy Statement (IRM 3.0.273.9.2). IRM 20.1.1.3.1.1 further provides that "reasonable cause relief is generally granted when the taxpayer exercises ordinary business care and prudence in determining their tax obligations but is unable to comply with those obligations." In addition, the IRM 20.1.1.3.1.1.1 states that "any reason that establishes a taxpayer exercised ordinary business care and prudence but was unable to comply with the tax law may be cconsidered for penalty relief." The IRS's Consolidated Penalty Handbook states that the only reason to have penalties is to improve voluntary compliance, not to punish. Taxpayer has been a compliant taxpayer who has previously met all of its filing and paying requirements in a timely manner. Therefore, the imposition of a penalty would only serve to punish Taxpayer rather than t |
