FOR THE PAST EIGHT YEARS THEY WERE ONLY REQUIRD TO FILE A POSTCARD, AND THEREFORE DID NOT NEED AN ACCOUNTANT. . DUE TO AN INCREASE IN INCOME, THEY WERE REQUIRED TO FILE A 990-EZ IN 2021 . THE TREASURER, ROBIN HOY, PREPARED A 990-EZ WITH A FILL-IN FORM AND MAILED IT TIMELY, ON NOVEMBER 15, 2022, BY CERTIFIED MAIL WITH THE POST OFFICE. ATTACHED IS A PDF OF COPIES OF THE CERTIFIED RECEIPT AND THE POSTMARKED ENVELOPE, SHOWING A MAILING DATE OF NOVEMBER 15, 2022. . SUBSEQUENTLY, BUCKS COUNTY FOODSHED ALLIANCE INC., RECEIVED A LETTER FROM THE IRS OFFICE IN OGDEN, UT 84201-0046, STATING THAT ALL TAX RETURNS FOR NON-PROFIT WERE REQUIRED TO BE FILE ELECTRONICALLY. ROBIN HOY, THE TREASURER, SPENT MANY HOURS TRYING TO FILE IT ON THE IRS WEBSITE BUT WAS UNSUCCESSFUL. EVENTUALLY, WHEN SHE WAS NOT ABLE TO FILE ELECRONICALLY ON HER OWN, SHE REACHED OUT TO ME, BECAUSE I HAD BEEN THEIR ACCOUNTANT PRIOR TO 2013, WHEN A 990-EZ WAS REQUIRED. I, BARBARA STEINMAN, AM A CPA AND HAVE THE SOFTWARE TO FILE ELECTRONICALLY. . UNFORTUNATELY, DURING THE PERIOD FROM WHEN SHE RECEIVED THE NOTICE FROM THE IRS AND THE PRESENT, SHE HAS BEEN DEALING WITH COVID-19 AND LONG-COVID MEDICAL SYMPTOMS FOR HER AND HER FAMILY. THE EFFECTS OF DEVELOPING COVID-19 TOOK A GREAT TOLL ON HER PHYSICAL AND MENTAL STATE. AND AT THE SAME TIME SHE NEEDED TO HELP FAMILY MEMBERS DEAL WITH THEIR COVID-19 SYMPTOMS. . SHE REACHED OUT TO ME AS SOON AS SHE WAS ABLE, AND THE COVID-19 SYMPTOMS HAD SUBSIDED FOR THE MOST PART. SHE HAD ALL INTENTIONS OF FILING ON TIME AND THERE WAS NO ATTEMPT TO INTENTINALLY DELAY THE FILING OF THE TAX RETURN. ALL PRIOR YEARS HAD BEEN FILED TIMELY. I AM SURE YOU UNDERSTAND THE DIFFICULTIES DURING THESE LAST FEW YEARS, WITH COVID-19 AND ALL THE TAX CHANGES. . THEREFORE, WE REQUEST ABATEMENT OF ALL PENALTIES FOR REASONABLE CAUSE. . IF YOU REQUIRE ANY FURTHER INFORMATION YOU MAY CONTACT ME OR ROBIN. . BARBARA STEINMAN, CPA 215-493-7680 bkatz848@aol.com . ROBIN HOY 267-247-8349 ecorobinhood@comcast.net
