ExplanationWe mailed in our return and it was returned with a letter dated November 158, 2021 stating that the IRS couldn't process the return as it needed to be filed electronically. We were not aware of this and thus are filing it electronically per this LTR 2694C. We would appreciate the waiver of any fees associated. We are a new organization with volunteers doing the accounting work. Thank you.ExplanationTxt
