This oversight resulted in a significant backlog of financial records, making it challenging to prepare accurate and timely reports. To rectify this situation, we promptly hired a highly skilled bookkeeper who diligently brought our financial records up to date. We were able to complete the necessary preparations and submit it as soon as possible. We would like to request an abatement for any late penalties.
