Waiver request submitted by Janice Fultz Richards, Tangipahoa Parish School Board / District A, regarding a $300 late fee assessed for filing her amended 2020 Tier 2 annual pfd 3 days late. |
|
|
Janice Fultz Richards was not late submitting her Tier 2 statement, but the form needed to be amended. She believes there was a postal mishap because she never received or signed for the NOD to amend. Initially, Ms. Richards contacted BOE to ask a question and was informed that she needed to amend her disclosure. She immediately complied. Ms. Richards is pleading that you waive this one-time fee because she strives to always complete her required disclosures timely. She is appreciative of your consideration in this matter.
