An IRS officer by telephone told us we would be granted an exception to the rule for electronic filing because ours was a case of "technological hardship" as defined by the IRS. What happened is that we signed up with PDFiller, a thoroughly incompetent tax preparation organization that then lost our submission and did not submit it to the IRS, although we had completed it well in advance of the deadline. I would also note that we have never been late with our 990 submissions over decades and should be granted a little leniency because of that.
