Explanation	October 16, 2023 RE: PENALTY ABATEMENT REQUEST Taxpayer: Allied Pilots Association Welfare Benefits Plan Master Trust EIN: 75-2589033 Tax Form: 990 Tax Period: 2022 To Whom it May Concern: We represent Allied Pilots Association Welfare Benefits Plan Master Trust ("Taxpayer"). For 2022 Form 990, an extension was inadvertently not filed by May 15, 2023. For the reasons stated within, Taxpayer respectfully requests abatement of any assessed penalties. Taxpayer is a 501(c)(9) Voluntary Employees' Beneficiary Association and has been in existence since 1994. Taxpayer provides welfare benefits to members of the Allied Pilots Association, a 501(c)(6) tax-exempt organization, and their dependents. A penalty would cause a financial hardship and harm the members it seeks to provide benefits. The taxpayer's operations would certainly be negatively impacted. Taxpayer has met the reasonable cause standard by demonstrating it exercised ordinary business care and prudence, therefore qualifies for abatement of penalty. Treas. Reg. 301.6652-1(f), Showing of reasonable cause states, "The amount imposed by subsection (a), (b), or (c) of section 6652 shall not apply with respect to a failure to file a statement within the time prescribed if it is established to the satisfaction of the district director or the director of the Internal Revenue Service Center that such failure was due to reasonable cause and not to willful neglect." In addition, IRM 20.1.1.3.2.1 Standards and Authorities cites, "Any reason that establishes a taxpayer exercised ordinary business care and prudence but nevertheless failed to comply with the tax law may be considered for penalty relief." Further, IRM 20.1.1.3.2.2 Ordinary Business Care and Prudence discusses that, "A taxpayer may establish reasonable cause by providing facts and circumstances showing that he or she exercised ordinary business care and prudence (taking that degree of care that a reasonably prudent person would exercise), but nevertheless were unable to comply with the law." The failure to file 2022 Form 990 in a timely manner was due to a miscommunication with the Taxpayer and their new accountants. Taxpayer has consistently engaged a professional tax preparer to file its required federal returns and for 2022 changed to a new tax preparer. During this transition, the Form 990 for this entity was inadvertently not included in the scope of work with all of the other Form 5500 tax filings and financial statement audits. Historically, Taxpayer has timely filed Form 8868 to request a 6-month extension and then filed its Form 990 timely within that extension period. Although an extension was not filed for tax period 2022, we are filing the return by what would have been the extended due date. Taxpayer acted in good faith, as well as in a responsible manner relative to Form 990 by filing the return with the IRS as soon it became aware that the return had not been extended. The late filing was not intentional or due to willful neglect, nor was there any deliberate attempt to disregard the rules and regulations of the filing requirement; it was simply an inadvertent error. It is also important to note that there is no outstanding tax. Further, IRM 20.1.1.2 Purpose of Penalties states, "Penalties exist to encourage voluntary compliance by supporting the standards of behavior required by the Internal Revenue Code. For most taxpayers, voluntary compliance consists of preparing an accurate return, filing it timely, and paying any tax due. Efforts made to fulfill these obligations constitute compliant behavior." Taxpayer made every effort to timely file its return. Taxpayer is historically compliant in its tax obligations, having never been assessed a late penalty and is committed to meeting all tax law requirements. Taxpayer has satisfied the requirement for reasonable cause by confirming it acted in a prudent and reasonable manner and was neither willful nor neglectful. Taxpayer respectfully requests that any penalties assessed by the IRS for the 2022 Form 990 be abated. I am submitting this on behalf of Taxpayer and I have conveyed the facts stated in this correspondence as told to me including any accompanying documents and to the best of my knowledge and belief they are true, correct and complete. Thank you for your consideration. If you require further information, please contact me at 616-802-3493. Respectfully, Jacob Cook	ExplanationTxt
