Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 16 Advertising, Licenses & Permits, Bank Fees, Registration Fees, Supplies, Travel, Vehicle Expenses, Dues & Subscriptions Form 990-EZ, Part II, Line 26 Visa To Whom It May Concern: We respectfully request abatement of penalties associated with the late filing of our Form 990-EZ for tax year 2025. This was the first year our organization was required to file Form 990-EZ, and we were unfamiliar with the electronic filing process. During submission of the return, we experienced difficulties with the online filing software, which delayed our ability to complete and successfully transmit the form in a timely manner. Our organization made a good-faith effort to comply with all IRS filing obligations. Upon becoming aware that the return had not been properly submitted, we took immediate corrective action to complete and file the return as quickly as possible. The late filing was not due to willful neglect, but rather due to inexperience with the Form 990-EZ filing requirements and unexpected technical difficulties encountered with the electronic filing software during our first filing year. We respectfully request that the IRS consider these circumstances as reasonable cause and waive any penalties assessed. Our organization is committed to full future compliance and has implemented measures to ensure timely filing going forward. Thank you for your consideration. Sincerely, Richard Greenwald President Rural American Ministries Network
