| Explanation | Our organization filed a valid extension for the 2024 tax year. During the extension period, we experienced delays in gathering final financial records due to limited staffing and the transition of financial duties. As a small nonprofit with one paid employee and volunteer administrative support, we worked diligently to collect accurate information and complete the return as soon as all records were available. The delay was not due to willful neglect, and we are submitting the return at the earliest possible time with complete and accurate information. We respectfully request that any late filing penalties be waived. | ExplanationTxt |
