Hi All,

I got a penalty because I didn't file the 1065 form on time this year (two weeks late). My company is eligible for small partnership penalty relief, thus I have sent a letter to IRS on 5/5 to request abatement. However, the mail has not arrived IRS yet and the due date of the penalty is on 5/23.

My question is, should I pay the penalty before the deadline or I can wait for IRS response?

Thank you,
