Dear Mr. Lucca:

This is in response to your continuing hardship exemption request for National Association of Letter Carriers, Branch 869, LM File Number 509-829, for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2008. Your request dated March 30, 2009 was received by the Office of Labor-Management Standards (OLMS) on March 31, 2009. A continuing hardship exemption request requires the requesting union to demonstrate that it cannot file Form LM-2 electronically without undue burden or expense.

You based your request upon the following information stated in your letter:

You are waiting to receive approval on a digital signature from IdenTrust. It is your intention to electronically file your LM-2 as soon as you receive the signature.

OLMS grants your continuing hardship exemption request for filing Form LM-2 electronically for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2008, based on the information provided, until April 30, 2009. If you have not already done so, please file a signed paper version of your Form LM-2 as soon as possible as it was due by March 31, 2009.  Until this report has been received, your union will be considered delinquent in its filing.

If you have any further questions about filing Form LM-2 pursuant to the hardship exemption, please call 202-693-0123 and reference your organization’s LM file number.

Sincerely,
