Reasonable Cause Explanation ReasonableCauseExplanation

FieldValueIRS element (for citing)
ExplanationI am writing to you today in regard to correspondence 0973195982 sent on September 6, 2022. This letter is to serve as an explanation of reasonable cause for why the Washington Park District Foundation ("WPDF") did not initially comply with the electronic filing requirement for 990-EZ forms and to request an abatement of any penalties accrued regarding this matter. First, WPDF acted in a responsible manner before and after the failure to comply with the electronic filing requirement. WPDF exercised the reasonable care that a reasonably prudent person would use to determine its filing obligations. Without knowledge of the new law requiring electronic filing for exempt organizations, WPDF filed its 2021 990-EZ return in the same manner it had always done. By filing a complete and accurate electronic return within ten days of receiving your letter, WPDF is acting to remove the cause of the failure and rectify the failure as promptly as possible after the failure was discovered. Pursuant to 26 CFR ยง 301.6724-1(d)(ii)(D), a failure may be rectified by filing or correcting the information return. WPDF is now advised of the requirement and will adapt its procedure to comply for future filings as well. Further, there are significant mitigating factors for the failure to comply with 26 USC 6033(n). Principally, WPDF had never been required to file a 990-EZ electronically before. The legislature allowed a postponed transitional relief for small exempt organizations and paper filings of 990-EZ returns were permitted for a tax year ending before July 31, 2021. WPDF was unaware of the new requirement to file 990-EZ returns electronically until receipt of your correspondence. WPDF has an established history of complying with the information reporting requirements and has not incurred a penalty. The electronic filing of the 990-EZ was submitted on Friday, September 16, 2022 using Form 990 Online software, an approved IRS e-file provider.ExplanationTxt
