      <ExplanationTxt>Gente de Venezuela respectfully requests relief from any late-filing penalty under IRC Section 6652(c) based on reasonable cause. The organization's Form 990-EZ was due on May 15, 2025. Unfortunately, the organization was unable to complete and file the return by that date due to circumstances beyond its control. During the filing period, the organization's Treasurer, who is primarily responsible for maintaining and providing the financial records necessary to prepare the annual return, experienced a significant illness that limited her ability to perform her duties and provide the required information in a timely manner. In addition, the organization experienced delays in obtaining and reconciling the financial records needed to prepare an accurate return, including the balance sheet and supporting financial information. The organization exercised ordinary business care and prudence and made diligent efforts to obtain the necessary records and complete the filing as soon as reasonably possible. Once the required financial information became available and the records could be properly verified, the return was promptly completed and filed. The delay was not due to willful neglect or intentional disregard of filing requirements. The organization has acted in good faith and remains committed to full compliance with all IRS filing obligations. Procedures are being strengthened to ensure timely filing in future years, including earlier financial reconciliation and additional oversight of filing deadlines. Accordingly, Gente de Venezuela respectfully requests that any late-filing penalty be abated due to reasonable cause. Under penalties of perjury, I declare that I have examined this statement and, to the best of my knowledge and belief, it is true, correct, and complete.</ExplanationTxt>
