| Explanation | Due to an administrative mistake, the IRS dropped us from the exempt organization list. Once the organization was restored to the list, our fiscal filing date was reset to using calendar year instead of fiscal year. We are in the process of correcting this fiscal to calendar year mistake. Upon the advice of IRS agent over the phone, we delayed filing our return until we could not wait any longer (NY Charity filing needs the newest return). | ExplanationTxt |
