Asserting 'Reasonable Cause' for Failure to File Form 5500-EZ
BenefitsLink Message Boards June 4, 2019
The majority of 5500-EZ's that are filed late and then use the IRS Penalty Relief Program seem to have a similar reason -- i.e., that they didn't know they were supposed to file (upon reaching $250K in assets, for example). Anyone have experience with using that explanation as a "reasonable cause" for the late filing of the form (rather than going through the Penalty Relief Program)?
