In previous tax years, our 3 year rolling average of gross receipts fell below the $50,000 per year allowing us to successfully file the electronic Form 990-N. During this past tax year, our organization experienced an increase in community support and fundraising activity, causing our gross receipts to exceed the rolling average of $50,000 per year for the first time. As a result, we unexpectedly became required to file Form 990-EZ instead of Form 990-N. Due to lack of expertise and proper training we mistakenly believed we were still eligible to file the Form 990-N. We did not realize at the time that crossing the threshold triggered a shift to the more complex Form 990-EZ, which required many volunteer hours of researching, gathering and organizing materials and financial records. We have now filed the required return and have put internal procedures in place to monitor our gross receipts moving forward. This will ensure that if we cross the Form 990-EZ threshold in future years, the form will be prepared and filed well ahead of the deadline. Given that this was a first-time oversight due to unexpected growth and that we have acted in good faith to remedy the mistake, we request that the IRS grant relief under Reasonable Cause and waive all late-filing penalties. Thank you for your time, understanding, and consideration of this request.
