Waiver request submitted by Matthew Fairbrother, Volunteer Louisiana Commission, regarding a $750 late fee assessed for filing his 2021 Tier 2.1 annual pfd 15 days late. |

Matthew Fairbrother does not recall receiving any documentation requiring him to file. However, he does recall receiving an emailed questionnaire asking if the candidate was required to file, but it did not indicate that he needed to. Mr. Fairbrother lives in an apartment complex with centralized mail pickup on the opposite side of the building, and someone else signed for his FTF notice. He does not check mail regularly, but the disclosure was filed the same day he retrieved the notice. Mr. Fairbrother would like to thank you for our consideration and ask for a waiver of the assessed late fee.
