If it was in/for the correct year (i.e. in 2018 for 20018), you should be safe.
If you feel that you missed the deadline due to a reasonable cause, you may ask the IRS to waive the 50% excise tax. The request for waiver may be included in a letter of explanation, which you attach to your tax return (Form 1040) along with your Form 5329. When requesting a waiver, do not pay the excess accumulation penalty up front.
Most important: Complete Part VIII of the Form 5329
If the IRS does not honor your waiver request, you will be notified.
