Resending: Why MUST nonprofit leaders file an information return to the IRS each year?


Dear Nonprofit Leaders,

You must file the appropriate information return (not tax return) to the IRS each year to retain your nonprofit's 501(c)(3) status.

There are five types of information returns. The type you use depends upon different factors like income and assets.


FORM 990N (ePOSTCARD)

Nonprofit leaders file the Form 990N (ePostcard) when the nonprofit organization generated between $0 and $50,000 the prior year.

DIY GUIDE

I created an easy-to-use DIY Guide that includes the steps required to file the Form 990N (ePostcard) successfully.

The DIY Guide is only $20!

BONUS! The DIY Guide also includes a free video demonstration that shows me completing the steps to file the Form 990N (ePostcard).

Thank you,

Dear Friends, The IRS automatically revokes 501(c)(3) nonprofit status for failure to file the appropriate Form 990 Information Returns for three consecutive years.
