Helping You File Form 990
Form 990 is essential for any nonprofit organization during tax season. It serves as a way for stakeholders and donors to view your organization’s financial history and allows it to keep its tax-exempt status. Depending on the nature of your nonprofit, you’ll be required to fill out one of three different Form 990s.
- Form 990-N: An e-postcard required for tax-exempt organizations with less than $50,000 in gross annual receipts.
- Form 990-EZ: Required for mid-sized tax-exempt organizations with gross annual receipts ranging from $50,000 to $200,000.
- Form 990: Required if an organization has over $200,000 in gross annual receipts. No matter which forms you must file, our team is here to handle the entire process.
Claiming Tax Deductions for Nonprofits
Although most nonprofits are tax-exempt, there are instances where organizations incur unrelated business income tax on their revenue. Fortunately, tax deductions provide a unique way to offset your tax bill. Even though nonprofits can’t claim the same deductions as traditional business entities, there are still plenty available. Some of the most common tax deductions we can help you claim include:
- Repair Costs: Inevitable costs for maintaining a building, including repairs and major renovations.
- Marketing Expenses: Deductions for advertising and marketing costs depending on your nonprofit’s nature.
- Wage Costs: Deductions for wages paid to employees, excluding interns and volunteers.
