Form 990, Part IX, Line 11g FORM 990, PART IX, Line 11g, Other Fees Contract Labor: $5,000 Medical Services: $14,061 Referee Services: $44,150 This is the organization's first time filing a full Form 990. We were under the mistaken impression that a .pdf of the return could be uploaded to the IRS's system. The .pdf of the return was timely prepared, but entering the data into an electronic filing platform took additional time. Suffice it to say, we are hiring an accounting firm for the 2023 return. We respectfully request four additional days, to Nov. 19, 2023, to file the orgainization's 2022 Form 990.
