Header General | Explanation:| Explanation Regarding Late Electronic Filing ..Explanation Regarding Electronic Filing of Form 990 ..Form 8868 for the 2024 tax year was approved by the IRS Notice CP211A extending the filing due date to November 15 2025. ..Prior to the extended due date the Organization prepared Form 990 and initiated the electronic filing process through H&R Block Business Tax Software. The software continues to show that the return was created on November 2 2025. At the time the software displayed a Processing status which subsequently disappeared. Based on the softwares status and interface the Organization reasonably believed that the electronic filing had been successfully transmitted. ..After receiving IRS Notice CP259A indicating that no return had been received the Organization immediately attempted to electronically file the return again through H&R Block Business Tax Software. However the software no longer permitted electronic filing because the filing deadline had already passed. ..The Organization then submitted a paper Form 990 together with a detailed explanation of the filing history. The paper return was subsequently returned by the IRS Reference No. 0422840355 because Form 990 is required to be filed electronically. ..Accordingly the Organization is now electronically filing its 2024 Form 990 through another IRS-authorized e-file provider in order to fully comply with the electronic filing requirement. ..The Organization has consistently complied with its annual filing obligations since its establishment and made every reasonable effort to timely file the 2024 Form 990. Accordingly the Organization respectfully requests that any applicable penalties be waived based on reasonable cause.
