Organizations that are tax-exempt under section 501(c) of the Internal Revenue Code must file Form 990. This includes charities, nonprofits, and other organizations seeking tax-exemption.
Form 990 is generally due on the 15th day of the 5th month after the end of your organization's fiscal year. Extensions may be requested, but timely filing is crucial to maintain tax-exempt status.
You can submit Form 990 electronically through the IRS e-file system or by using services like pdfFiller that facilitate online submission. Ensure all required information is filled out correctly before submission.
While Form 990 itself is the primary document, you may need to include financial statements, auditor reports, and details pertaining to governance, compensation, and activities of the organization.
Common mistakes include incomplete fields, incorrect financial reporting, missing signatures, and failing to provide supporting documents. Always review the form carefully and consider using validation tools available in online editors.
Processing times for Form 990 can vary, but generally, the IRS takes several weeks to process and acknowledge receipt. Ensure you file on time to avoid penalties or issues with tax-exempt status.
There is no fee for filing Form 990 itself if done directly with the IRS. However, if you choose to use third-party services for assistance, those may incur additional costs.
