The return was filed late due to lack of staff to complete all necessary components of running the nonprofit .

We have since taken steps to ensure compliance going forward, including implementing internal reminders, assigning specific responsibility for timely filings, and currently developing a new team of professionals to ensure we are growing and improving our organization. We respectfully request that penalties be waived in light of these circumstances and our good faith effort to comply with IRS requirements.
