| Explanation | REASONABLE CAUSE STATEMENTIN THE PRESENT CASE, THE TAXPAYER'S COMPLIANCE HISTORY DEMONSTRATES THAT THE TAXPAYER UNDERSTANDS AND RESPECTS THE IMPORTANCE OF FILING ALL REQUIRED TAX FORMS IN A TIMELY MANNER. TAXPAYER TIMELY FILED ITS ORIGNAL 2020 FORM 990-EZ (SHORT PERIOD 10-26-20 - 12-31-20) VIA MAIL. PRIOR TO THE ORIGINAL DUE DATE OF THE 2021 RETURN, TAXPAYER'S ACCOUNTANT ATTEMPTED TO FILE EXTENSION FORM 8868, BUT IT WAS REJECTED, DUE TO A YEAR-END MIS-MATCH WITH THE IRS DATABASE. IRS WOULD NOT ACCEPT ELECTRONICALLY FILED EXTENSION BECAUSE THE IRS DATABASE INCORRECTLY SHOWED THE TAXPAYER'S PERIOD YEAR-END AS 6/30. TAXPAYER'S ACCOUNTANT CALLED THE E-HELP DESK FOR TAX PROFESSIONALS AND WAS ABLE TO GET THE IRS DATABASE CORRECTED TO SHOW THE TAXPAYER'S PERIOD YEAR-END AS 12/31. RESOLUTION OF THIS ISSUE NOW ALLOWS TAXPAYER TO ELECTRONICALLY FILE ALL REQUIRED TAX FORMS. BASED ON THE REASONING STATED ABOVE, TAXPAYER RESPECTFULLY REQUESTS THAT LATE-FILING PENALTIES AND RELATED INTEREST BE ABATED. | ExplanationTxt |
