We believe there is reasonable cause for the late filing of our 2023 Form 990-EZ. Our organization is a small non-profit entity. Our records are not on hand as our organization maintains off-site office space. The officers of our organization have limited time in which to conduct union business, as they also hold full-time positions with the school district. A newly elected treasurer started his term just after the 5/31/24 fiscal year end and was given little to no direction on IRS filing requirements and/or deadlines. The start date was 7/1/24. A correctly completed 990-EZ for FYE 5/31/24 was is being filed to correct the situation. The organization has now noted filing deadlines, and the newly elected treasurer received instruction/assistance from the past treasurer and parent organization. By taking these necessary steps, we are confident that this situation will not occur in the future and all future Form 990-EZs will be filed in a timely manner."
