IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/FormAndLineReferenceDesc0Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 16
ReasonableCauseExplanation/ExplanationTxt0The Montpelier Contra Dance (MCD) applied for Group Exemption under the Country Dance and Song Society's (CDSS) group exemption (CDSS EIN 04-3031125 GEN 9228) in 2023 and received a letter from them stating that MCD was a bona fide 501c3 subordinate under their group exemption. However, when we tried to submit our 990N in 2024, the MCD EIN did not come up as a 501c3. The CDSS tried to resolve this and submitted the Montpelier Contra Dance under their group exemption three more times and assured us we were part of their group exemption. We also reached out twice to the IRS directly in 2025 and 2026 and were told that CDSS had to resubmit. But as of Feb 23, 2026 our EIN still did not show up as a 501c3. Therefore the MCD submitted our own application (Form 1023) for recognition of exemption from federal income tax under section 501c3 on February 24, 2026 and notified CDSS that we no longer wish to be included in their group exemption. We have submitted 1099EZ for tax year 2023, are now submitting for tax year 2024, and will submit for tax year 2025 before May 15, 2026.
