Time is Running Out! Nonprofits have until 10/15 to file with IRS

Small nonprofits have until Friday, October 15, to submit their online 990N. This end of the six-month extension from the (normal) May 15 deadline.

This same one-time extension is available to 990 EZ nonprofit taxpayers earning more than $25,000, but still qualifying for a “small nonprofit” classification.

Nonprofits who have not kept up with filing requirements WILL (not “might” or “may”) lose their tax exempt status.
