Pt VI, Line 11b Form 990 is distributed to Board of Directors electronically prior to submission to IRS. Pt VI, Line 15a Personnel Committee performs review of compensation and makes recommendations to the Board of Directors. Pt VI, Line 19 Documents are made available on request. Jesus Centered Ministries, Inc. respectfully submits this reasonable cause statement in connection with the late filing of Form 990 for the tax year ending 12/31/2024, in support of a request for waiver of any penalties that may otherwise be assessed. Jesus Centered Ministries, Inc. is a small nonprofit organization with limited staff and resources. The organization exercised ordinary business care and prudence by engaging a qualified, independent tax professional well in advance of the filing deadline. All requested financial information was provided timely and in good faith. During the filing period, and without prior notice, the tax preparer abandoned the engagement and became unresponsive. The organization was not aware that the return had not been prepared or filed until after the due date had passed. This unforeseen professional abandonment was outside the organizations control and directly caused the delay. Once the issue was discovered, the organization acted promptly to secure a new preparer and complete and file the return as soon as reasonably possible. The Form 990 for the year in question has now been filed in full. This was the organizations first late filing and does not reflect willful neglect or disregard of filing requirements. Corrective measures have been implemented to ensure timely filings going forward. Based on these facts, Jesus Centered Ministries, Inc. respectfully requests that the IRS find reasonable cause for the late filing and waive any penalties that may otherwise be imposed.
