Legacy Family Center respectfully requests abatement of the late-filing penalty based on reasonable cause. Legacy exercised ordinary business care and prudence in attempting to comply with its filing obligations under Internal Revenue Code section 6033. Legacy timely engaged a qualified tax professional to prepare its Form 990-series return and provided all information necessary to complete the filing. Prior to the original due date, Legacy reasonably understood that Form 8868 would be timely submitted to obtain the automatic six-month extension of time to file. The organization has otherwise maintained a history of timely compliance with its filing obligations. Due to an isolated administrative oversight during the filing process, the extension request was not successfully submitted by the due date. Legacy was unaware of the issue at the time and believed appropriate steps had been taken to comply with the filing requirements. Legacy did not intentionally disregard its filing obligations and made good-faith efforts to ensure compliance. Upon becoming aware of the issue, Legacy acted promptly to complete and file the return and to address the matter. Legacy has also implemented additional procedures to verify future extension submissions and filing acknowledgments to help prevent a recurrence. Because the failure was isolated, occurred despite the organizations good-faith compliance efforts, and was corrected promptly upon discovery, Legacy respectfully requests abatement of the penalty under the reasonable-cause provisions applicable to exempt organization return filings.
