ReasonableCauseExplanation/ExplanationTxt0The nonprofit was established on October 9, 2023. An extension was filed by our accountant, but it was not submitted. Our accountant then disappeared and stopped contacting us. We spoke to an IRS agent directly on the phone and were told we have until 11/15/24 to file the 990-EZ for our initial nonprofit return.
