      <ExplanationTxt>This firm was engaged by the above referenced Organization to perform the 2023 year end audit and filing the Organization's annual tax filing, form 900. The Organization's tax year is January through December. Relying on that information, this firm proceeded to file form 8868, Extension of Time to file. Accordingly, the original due date would have been May 15, 2024. That date was extended by our filing of form 8868 to November 15, 2024.On September 24, 2024, the State of Georgia was impacted by Hurricane Helene and Milton. Subsequently, on October 1, 2024, the Internal Revenue Service announced filing relief (GA-2024-08, October 1, 2024) for those taxpayers affected by Hurricanes Helene and Milton. The relief further extended the filing due date for federal tax forms including form 990 until May 1, 2025. Taking into consideration the Organization is domicled in the State of Georgia and further, the Organization retained the services of a Certified Public Accountant, who is located in the State of Florida and who has the necessary records and documents for filing the return, resides in Florida and is also covered under the extended filing date of May 1, 2025 (FL-2024-10, October 11, 2024) which also further extends to this Organization.Consequently, the above-referenced Organization respectfully request relief for any penalty that may arise as a result from the filing form 990.</ExplanationTxt>
