Reasonable Cause Explanation ReasonableCauseExplanation

FieldValueIRS element (for citing)
ExplanationTHE FOUNDATION'S OFFICERS DID NOT TIMELY FILE THIS TAX RETURN BECAUSE THEY THOUGHT THAT THERE WAS NO FILING REQUIREMENT SINCE THE FOUNDATION HAD NOT RECEIVED FUNDS BY DECEMBER 31, 2012. THE FOUNDATION'S OFFICERS WERE NOT NOTIFIED OF ITS TAX FILING OBLIGATION BY THEIR LEGAL COUNSEL WHEN THE FOUNDATION WAS FORMED. THEREFORE, THE FOUNDATION OFFICERS DID NOT SEEK ADVICE FROM A CPA UNTIL AFTER THE DUE DATE OF THIS TAX RETURN.Explanation
