| Waiver request submitted by Nemia Nathiel "Nate" Madere, Lake Providence Board of Aldermen - East Carroll Parish, regarding a $450 late fee assessed for filing his amended 2014 Tier 3 annual PFD 9 days late. |
|
Mr. Madere states that his recollection was that he reported the school board income; however, it was reported on the wrong schedule. A review of the PFD filed indicates that his employment with the school board was disclosed as employment; however, the income received from the school board was not disclosed.
NOTE: Mr. Madere filed a Tier 2.1 form instead of the required Tier 3. The NOD-amend only requested that he disclose his school board income on Schedule E. It did not request that he refile his disclosure statement using a Tier 3 form.
