Waiver request submitted by Roslyn A. Johnny, a member of the New Orleans Council on Aging, regarding a $1,500 late fee assessed for filing her Amended 2012 Tier 2.1 annual pfd 331 days late and a $1,500 late fee assessed for filing her 2013 Tier 2.1 annual pfd 38 days late. |

On May 21, 2015, Ms. Johnny requested a waiver of late fees related to the above referenced disclosure statements. Ms. Johnny states that she mistakenly believed the disclosure statements were filed with this agency.
The NOD-amend was issued because Ms. Johnny failed to disclose the name of her board or commission on the pfd.
The staff does not have proof that Ms. Johnny received the NOD issued for the 2013 Tier 2.1 pfd as the green card list another person's name and address.
