Was the delay in lodgement caused by an industrial dispute (e.g. postal strike)?Yes No
Can you provide evidence of a genuine attempt to notify or make payment within the prescribed period?Yes No
Can you provide evidence that the late fee was caused by circumstances beyond the control of the company and its officers (this does not include problems with third parties such as registered agents)?Yes No
