Reasonable Cause Explanation ReasonableCauseExplanation

FieldValueIRS element (for citing)
ExplanationTHE FOUNDATION HAS WORKED TO OBTAIN PROFESSIONAL SERVICE FOR ACCOUNTING AND TAX FUNCTIONS. IN THE MEANWHILE, THE FOUNDATION WAS OPERATED ONLY BY VOLUNTEER MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS, WITH MEMBERSHIP TURNOVER. THE BOARD MISUNDERSTOOD THE TIMING OF THE ORGANIZATION'S 2015 FILINGS, AND AFTER DISCOVERING THE ERROR, WORKED TO OBTAIN COPIES OF MISSING FINANCIAL DOCUMENTS NECESSARY TO COMMENCE THE PROFESSIONAL ACCOUNTING SERVICES. THIS WAS AN ERROR BUT WAS NOT WILLFUL NEGLECT. THE FOUNDATION HAS ENGAGED THE SERVICES OF A PROFESSIONAL TAX AND ACCOUNTING COMPANY TO ENSURE ALL FILINGS GOING FORWARD ARE FILED ON A TIMELY BASIS, AND HAS RE-ORGANIZED DUTIES OF THE VOLUNTEER BOARD OF DIRECTORS (INCLUDING NEW VOLUNTEER DIRECTORS) TO IMPROVE THE ORGANIZATION OF FINANCIAL DOCUMENTS. THE 2016 TAX RETURN HAS BEEN PREPARED AND FILED ON A TIMELY BASIS.ExplanationTxt
