TY 2023 ReasonableCauseExplanation
Name:
STEELCASE FOUNDATION
EIN:
38-6050470
Explanation:
The Steelcase Foundation failed to timely extend Forms 990-PF and 990-T due to administrative error. The accounting firm who handles transmitting the extension had a project management software change and failed to transmit the extension electronically. The taxpayer received notice that an extension had not been filed on October 21, 2024. Upon receipt of this notice, the taxpayer and accounting firm filed the return as quickly as possible and no additional tax was owed. The return is being filed by what would have been the timely extended due date had an extension been filed. Taxpayer acted in good faith, as well as in a responsible manner relative to Forms 990-PF and 990-T 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." The Steelcase Foundation made every effort to timely file its return. 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 2023 Forms 990-PF and 990-T be abated.
