What are examples of reasonable causes for waiving the penalties for failing the 90% qualified asset testing at the QOF level?
Reasonable cause is typically granted after a good faith effort to comply and demonstrate that non-compliance was due to circumstances outside the taxpayer's control. That's a wide universe of reasons, but it's tough to justify reasonable cause in the event the taxpayer could have made a better effort to comply and did not.
