Waiver request submitted by Rickey Adams, Avoyelles Parish School Board, District 7, regarding a $200 late fee assessed for filing his amended 2020 Tier 2 annual pfd 2 days late. |
|
|
Rickey Adams would like to request to have a late fee assessment waived after being 2 days late filing his Tier 2 amendment. During the week of 3/14/2022 and part of the following week, he was sick with Covid. He recalls this time period because he and his wife were unable to celebrate their 26th Anniversary, which was 03/23/2022 due to being ill. His only prior late fee was assessed due to his lack of knowledge pertaining to the filing process. Mr. Adams appreciates any consideration for waiving the late fee and states it will not happen again.
