Some important points:
- All clubs and associations of record EIN's are reported to the IRS with with the annual HTI Group Exemption update.
- Revocation of the Non-Profit status occurs when the Annual 990-N ePostcard filing is not made with the IRS for 3 consecutive years.
- Even with revocation the EIN holder is still required to file a paper tax return!
- The balance of your checking account does not determine IF you need to file the 990-N ePostcard - you must file.
- No tax is due on INCOME under $50,000!
- The filing of the 990-N ePostcard is generally based on the date the EIN was obtained vs. a calendar year.
- Should the EIN go 'out-of-business' you still have to file for the last year and check the box 'gone out of business'.
- The laws governing tax filings, status revocations, status reinstatement are enacted by the United States House and Senate and are enforced by the IRS.
- Lastly, there nothing the International Office can do to speedup, cut corners, call someone to help the process out.
