| General Explanation Supplemental Information for Form 990-PF | This is a request for late filing penalty waiver. In October 2014, a reporter for The Denver Post, Denver, Colorados daily newspaper, asked the tax practitioner to review the tax returns of the two Colorado candidates for the United States Senate. This was just prior to the November 2014 General Election. One of the candidates, Senator Mark Udall, showed very little charitable donations for the year relative to his income. When the practitioner pointed this out the reporter, the Campaign Manager for Mark Udall explained that Senator Udall did most of his charitable donations through a Donor Advised Fund which had been funded in prior years. Also, the campaign refused to allow the reporter and/or practitioner to look into the particulars of that candidates DAF. At that time, the practitioner did not know what a donor advised fund was so she did some research. After learning some basics about a Donor Advised Fund, the practitioner believed that a DAF might work for one of her clients. This client had established a Private Foundation in 2004 and a DAF appeared to be a better vehicle to accomplish her philanthropic goals. The Practitioner suggested that the taxpayer discuss this concept with her Financial Advisor. The Advisor thought it was a great idea and recommended that the practitioner and taxpayer speak with Fidelity Charitable about the specifics of closing down a Foundation and creating and moving all assets to a DAF. The practitioner was concerned about being able to accomplish the transfer before December 31, 2014, in addition to her need to learn how to prepare a final tax return for the Foundation. The Fidelity Charitable representative assured the practitioner that preparation of the final return would be no more difficult than the preparation of an annual 990-PF, and hed be able to help when the time came. In July 2015, practitioner relocated her office to a location 30 miles away. At that time the pressure of the regular tax season had passed and the only issue with a time deadline prior to the September 15 and October 15 extension deadlines was the Foundation tax return. Practitioner believed the move could be accomplished in ample time to be able to get settled and to prepare the final Foundation tax return. Additionally, she believed that the Fidelity contact would be able to deliver on his promise to help. This did not turn out to be the case. The Fidelity contact was little to no help. He was into the Sales end of getting the DAF established, and that part went smoothly. It was accomplished by December 31, 2014; his job was done as far as he was concerned. Additionally, preparation of a final return is more difficult than a simple annual return. Practitioner completed the return as soon as humanly possible and is respectfully requesting that a late filing penalty not be assessed.
