RE:
Waiver request submitted by Michael Louis Guinn, a member of the Auctioneers Licensing Board, regarding a $1500 late fee assessed for filing his amended 2019 Tier 2.1 annual pfd 85 days late and regarding a $1500 late fee assessed for filing his 2020 Tier 2.1 annual pfd 58 days late.
Facts:
Mr. Guinn states that he is a single father of 5 and an owner/manager of a business. All mail goes to his P.O. Box that is picked up by his contract bookkeeper. As a self-employed, busy, single dad, the notices were left unattended in a stack of mail. He asks the Board to consider his untimely waiver request.
