Reasonable Cause Explanation ReasonableCauseExplanation

FieldValueIRS element (for citing)
ExplanationThis is our first 990 form. We attempted to E-File in May of 2023 using a self-filing service but were unfamiliar with a lot of the terminology .We requested assistance from H&R Block (which handles our for-profit business tax returns) and was informed that we COULD be assisted with the 990. We attempted to schedule over 4 separate meetings in the first and second quarter of 2023 and was informed repeatedly that each tax preparer we were scheduled with could assist and was experienced with nonprofits, only to be told upon arrival that they could not. We finally were connected with and took several meetings with Mr. Rolfe Godfrey in Tacoma, WA in October 2023 who informed us that he could assist us with our form but that he was backlogged and we would have to wait another 30-60 days. After multiple attempts to schedule, we consulted with several preparers but could not afford their initial fees without encumbering our program budget and were finally referred to efile.form990.org to finalize this process.ExplanationTxt
