Understanding Nonprofit Tax Forms

Nonprofits have specific tax forms to report their financial activities and maintain compliance with IRS regulations. Let's explore some of the most common tax forms and their purposes:

Form 990

Form 990 is the primary information return for tax-exempt organizations. It provides a comprehensive overview of your nonprofit's operations, including financial information, program activities, governance, and compensation. Form 990 ensures transparency and accountability, allowing the public and donors to assess your organization's financial health and impact.

Form 990-EZ

Form 990-EZ is a simplified version of Form 990 and is available for smaller nonprofits with gross receipts below a certain threshold. It requires less extensive reporting while still capturing essential financial and operational information.

Form 990-N

Form 990-N, also known as the e-Postcard, is the simplest form available for very small tax-exempt organizations. It is only required for nonprofits with gross receipts below a specific threshold. This form collects basic information about the organization's operations and ensures that the IRS has updated contact information.

Form 1023 and Form 1023-EZ

Form 1023 is the application for tax-exempt status under section 501(c)(3) of the IRS code. It requires detailed information about your organization's structure, purpose, and activities. However, some smaller organizations may qualify to file Form 1023-EZ, which has simplified requirements.

State-Specific Forms

In addition to federal tax forms, nonprofits may have to file state-specific tax forms based on their location. These forms vary from state to state and may include annual reports, charitable solicitation registrations, and sales tax exemption applications. It's important to familiarize yourself with the requirements of your state.
