| Reasonable Cause Statement | INSEAD Alumni Association USA is filing the Form 990-EZ late for the tax year ending December 31, 2022 outside of the 10-day perfection period in accordance with IRS Publication 4163, Section 3.21, "Rejected e-Filed Returns" after multiple attempts to e-File were unsuccessful. A copy of the rejection notification is attached to the return. INSEAD Alumni Association USA attempted to e-File its Form 990-EZ on the extended due date of November 15, 2023 and received an e-File rejection notice. In an attempt to resolve the rejection, the taxpayer's tax preparer contacted the IRS e-help Desk as well as the Internal Revenue Service agent on their Determination Letter. The agents were able to find the e-File rejection and confirmed the tax exempt status type of 501(c)(7) did not match the tax exempt status type of 501(c)(4) in the Internal Revenue Service database. The Internal Revenue Service issued a Determination Letter on November 6, 2023 reflecting the tax exempt status type for INSEAD Alumni Association USA as a 501(c)(7). The agents created an incident to have this resolved so the taxpayer could resubmit the return electronically, but confirmed would not be able to file the return until December 8, 2023. Based on the facts presented above which demonstrate the taxpayer exercised ordinary business care and prudence, we respectfully request that any late filing penalty be removed based on reasonable cause. |
