| Explanation | This filing is not late. This 2023 990-EZ form is being used to submit the organization's filing for our 1/1/25-6/30/25 short year period after changing our fiscal year. The 2025 990-EZ was not available at the time of filing, and the online filing system the organization uses would not permit using the 2024 990-EZ form for a short year filing since it was already used to submit the organization's regular 2024 filing. Therefore, the next most recent filing year form (2023) was used for submission. | ExplanationTxt |
