Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 16 Description;Amount^Production Expenses;52751|Insurance;4044|Banking Accounting Software Corp;6775^Total;63570^ Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 20 Description;Amount^Rounding adjustment;1^Total;1^ Fox Valley Ballet respectfully requests a full abatement of late-filing penalties under Section 6652(c)(1)(A) due to a serious, ongoing medical crisis involving its volunteer Treasurer. The organization operates as a small public charity relying entirely on a volunteer Treasurer to maintain its specialized fund accounting system (Aplos) and prepare its annual tax filings. In November 2025, the Treasurer was diagnosed with a brain aneurysm. Since that initial diagnosis, the Treasurer has been undergoing extensive medical testing, specialist interventions, and monitoring for multiple compounding cardiovascular conditions-including hypertension, mild coronary artery disease, possible severe cardioinhibitory syncope, and a congenital heart defect.The profound stress, physical toll, and constant schedule of diagnostic testing severely disrupted the Treasurer's ability to maintain normal obligations. It became exceptionally difficult to manage a full-time livelihood, let alone keep pace with the complex, uncompensated bookkeeping duties required for the nonprofit. As a small, volunteer-dependent organization, there was no alternative administrative staff available to assume these specialized accounting tasks. Despite exercising ordinary business care, this medical emergency rendered timely filing impossible. As soon as the Treasurer's medical testing schedule and health stabilized enough to allow a return to the books, the organization immediately prioritized completing and e-filing this return to restore full compliance. Under penalties of perjury, I declare that I have examined this statement, including accompanying documents, and to the best of my knowledge and belief, it is true, correct, and complete.
