Waiver request submitted by Stephen P. Kantrow, Louisiana Cancer and Lung Trust Fund Board, regarding a $550 late fee assessed for filing his 2022 Tier 2.1 annual pfd 11 days late. |
|
For several years, Stephen Kantrow asked to be removed from the Louisiana Cancer and Lung Trust Fund Board. He was unsure how to accomplish this beyond email requests sent to the president of the Board. He made this request for two reasons. First, the Board is inactive and has no current role that he is aware of. Also, each year, the State of Louisiana fails to notify him that a disclosure is due. He received the notices certified mail and via subpoena. Mr. Kantrow was unaware of any other communications before being served. He responded as quickly as possible, given he is a busy physician. Online submission is confusing, and the system may have been down when he attempted to submit his form.
