DEAP recently hired a staff accountant to compile financial information for the organization. The former staff accountant resigned after 30+ years of employment, an internal promotion was made; however, this individual did not possess an accounting background and was unable to compile the information necessary for completion of a 990. This individual was in the account position for approximately 1-1/2 years. DEAP began recruiting for an individual with an accounting background and hired on October 4, 2024. They have completed the accounting work for the 2022 990 which was filed and then began work on compiling and completing the 2023 990. An extension was filed for this return via the U.S. Postal Service, but we have not received any acknowledgement of the approval of an extension. You may be assured that from this point forward all 990's will be filed in compliance with IRS regulations.
