Our failure to file Form 990-EZ in a timely manner was due to circumstances beyond our control. Specifically, we had relied on a program or individual to handle the filing process on our behalf, under the assurance that it would be completed well within the stipulated timeline. Unfortunately, the individual/program responsible for this crucial task failed to fulfill their commitment, resulting in an unforeseen delay in the filing process. Upon becoming aware of the untimely filing, immediate action was taken to rectify the situation. Without hesitation, I took the necessary steps to ensure the immediate submission of the Form 990-EZ to the IRS. We understand the importance of compliance and are committed to meeting all regulatory obligations. I taught myself the IRS Rules for filing the 990-ez adding to the mitigating circumstances that contributed to the delay. Now that I have knowledge of the Rules, I promise it will not happen again. I respectfully request that the IRS grant a waiver of the associated penalty, considering the circumstances outlined above and our organization's commitment to compliance. The late filing was an anomaly, and we have taken steps to prevent such occurrences in the future by reassessing our internal procedures and establishing stricter oversight measures. Enclosed, please find the belatedly filed Form 990-EZ for 2022 for your review and processing. Thank you for your attention to this matter. We sincerely hope for your understanding and favorable consideration regarding our request for penalty abatement.
