We'll need to keep a close eye on things. 14:21:32 <dluch> gmcharlt_ yes 14:22:23 <agoben> #topic Unfinished Business 14:22:33 <agoben> #info The Evergreen Project's 1023 was submitted on Thursday, April 23, 2020. It's current status is "Accepted" with the IRS. Have not received any updates/questions as yet. 14:22:59 <agoben> With the way it went in, I believe Donna Bacon at MOBIUS and Dilly will be receiving the questions when they arrive. 14:24:05 <agoben> Any comments? Questions? 14:24:05 <csharp> agoben++ # yay! 14:24:21 <dluch> I don't think Donna has gotten anything, but I'm checking. 14:24:30 <agoben> Yes, huge relief to have it in. 14:24:46 <agoben> They state when you submit it that they have up to 18 months to ask questions. 14:24:52 <agoben> I'm hoping for a much faster turnaround. 14:25:06 <dluch> Donna says no, she hasn't gotten anything yet 14:25:08 <agoben> But 3.5 weeks is probably too much to hope for. 14:25:14 <agoben> Thanks, dluch! 14:25:54 <agoben> #topic New Business 14:26:02 <agoben> I don't have anything. Anyone else? 14:26:49 <gmcharlt_> as a data point, Equinox's 1023 got questionsa about 8 weeks after submission, which were answered and wrapped up 3-4 weeks after that 14:26:53 <gmcharlt_> so about 12 weeks in total 14:27:12 <JBoyer> That would be great. 14:27:16 <tlittle> Definitely better than 18 months! 14:27:21 <agoben> Ooo, good to know. We'll hope things are still moving at that pace, even with the pandemic delaying personal taxes 14:28:15 <gmcharlt_> I have no actual new business, by th eway 14:28:31 <tlittle> None here. 14:28:45 <agoben> Ok, then... 14:28:50 <agoben> #topic Next meeting 14:29:01 <agoben> #info Our next meeting will be on June 18, 2020. 14:29:20 <agoben> Thanks everyone! 14:29:22 <agoben> #endmeeting
